Hi there!

I need to declare several large structure array which might exceed the 64KB
data segments. Therefore I need to use the large memory model but according
to some books large model are not recommended for windows program. But on Internet somebody mentioned that "there is no reason not to use large memory model - not anymore". Could somebody help to explain this? And if I used large
memory model, is there anything which I need to be cautious of. 

I am using a 486 system with Windows ver 3.1 and MS 7.0. Thanks.
