??? 07/13/08 23:31 Read: times	#156677 - 'temp' holds an address, not the char array. Responding to: ???'s previous message
	Robert Revens said: Presumably my char* data temp; was only storing the pointer in data memory, not temp? That line alone was allocating 'data' storage for a generic (3-byte) pointer named 'temp'. A subsequent statement assigned 'temp' the address in code memory where the string literal "Test1" is stored.
