By the way, the *reason* why you cannot store a file pointer in a dynamic 
array, is that dynamic arrays are delimited by ascii characters such as 255, 
254, 253, etc.  These characters however CAN occur within the body of a file 
pointer.  Dimensioned arrays are not delimited by a character at all, rather 
they have a fixed byte size.  So no possibility of conflict with a delimiter.
