I have programs that use binary files to index data files.

I can work with the data files from DJGPP and from BC well, but the format
of structures seems to be different in both compilers because I cannot
recognize it from the other. If I regenerate the index files when change to
other compiler, it works, but I would like to mix both programas over the
same files in a network where there are machines with old versions of the
program.

I have tried #pragma pack(1) to make format compatible, but it don't work.

Any idea?
Thanks
