Thanks. That one works with TEXT overriding its functions openfunc, inoutfunc, flushfunc, and closefunc, whereas the structure FileRec has none of them and contains only a THandle member. Does that mean that one can write a custom driver for TEXT but not for FILE? -- Please, do not forward replies to my e-mail. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
