Are you storing pointers to records in your collection? If so then just replace
the field's value. The change will then be immediately visible for every other
code part that holds a reference to this record.
thanks for your reply, sven... you've been a big help with your responses to my
questions...
in answer to your question, yes... the collections are storing pointers to the
records and the records are also pointers to the data (i think!)... i'm using
this line to replace the data in the collection with the new data if they are
not already the same...
PSCRec(aSatCatColl^.At(idx))^.satname^ := asatname;
the data is changing but i'm suspecting that i need to be doing something more
because with the above line in place, i'm getting a lot of errors like the
following... i suspect the problem is that the data being replaced is a
different length that the replacement data?? if i comment out the above line, my
program runs with no errors at all...
