Tidy this up before coming back asking for more help :-)

The only permissible operations on a pointer are dereference, assignment, 
and comparison for equality/inequality. What are you trying to do?

> How do do and assignment to it;-((

To the pointer or to the entity it is pointing to?

HALT, but be warned that some implementations treat this as an abnormal 
termination and produce a memory dump or whatever, also don't assume that 
files will be closed properly. The "right" way to do it depends very much 
on what you are trying to do, you are likely to lose marks if you are not 
_very_ careful since some academics consider RETURN and EXIT to be 
equivalent to GOTO and I am sure that they would also have included HALT 
if they could have brought themselves to use the word in public.
