Can anyone help me with this scenario:

I have a file of 128 byte records.  There are 4 or 5 differring possible 
record structures.  the first is:

TYPE block1type
  howmany as integer
  DIM items(64) AS INTEGER
END TYPE

Or, at least, that's what I'm looking for.  QB 4.5 seems to choke on having 
a DIM inside a type declaration.  Well, shucks, how else can I get an 
indexed block of 64 integers?  (I'm assuming that integers are stored in 
LSB MSB format, and are 16 bits wide total.)

I'm not worried about others yet....I'm fighting with this one.

Talk to y'all later...
