In a program I'm writing, I have a chunk of memory over 1Mb malloced, with just a standard int ptr pointing to it. Now can I use standard pointer arithmetic to access that block, or even standard array indicing? Because I have tried this, and the memory seems to fold back like it can't handle accessing deep into the big chunk. I hope someone can help, as I have spent a week trying to solve this frustrating problem. Thanx in advance, Kelly.
