- Its off the point of the group, but having had the same problem
- myself :-
-
- Borland C apears to bunch data segments together, even with the large
- memory model, so the obvious _use a different model_ answer don't
- help much. The answer I have found, and I would love to find a better
- one is to use the compiler switch to generate separate segments for
- data item's over a certain size ( I think its -F ), however on its
- own it's not much use, reduce the far data threshold so more items
- fall within the selection size range, can't remember the opt for
- this but it's in the manual.
-
- Hope this helps
