    Yes that is my understanding also. I believe there's another keyword called ABSOLUTE (http://www.delphigeist.com/2009/09/a...directive.html) that lets you do somthing similar to a variant record. A stated by Chronozphere, Variant records can be thought of two or more sets of variables that share the same memory. Absolute lets you do this as well, but directly for variables rather than in a record type.

    (although I read that there's problems with this on architectures that force storage on the stack rather than allowing it to sit in a register. or the other way around, I forget)
