  11. I am wanting to hold information in a structure.
  12. One piece of info is a pair of hex address for use with 'inport' commands.
  13. My question is, what is the best type to define these as to hold them.
  14. In one case I defined it and it caused all info on the line after the HEX
  15. to be totally ignored on initialising the struct.
  16.  
  17. So what does inport want? is it a type INT or Char or another.
  18.  
  19. The struct I'm playing with should be below.  
  20.  
  21. thanks for any help.
  22. replies via email appreciated.
