The title should say most of what I want to ask.  What I'm trying to do is 
develop several graphics tools that can sketch different types of graphics
objects (lines, symbols, ellipses, etc...), as well as implement a spreadsheet
that can store these (and other) types of data. My question is, how do I handle 
a linked list of items without storing the pointers of each object in each list.
One way would be to use the local data segment, but that only leaves a hardcoded
limit of 64K.  Is there a general software offering for MS Windows that does
this kind of complex memory management.  I don't want to use a DOS extender, 
after all I'm probably only (only.. right :-) going to need < 100K for the 
application.  This is MAX, but I don't want to limit the user to 64K unless
that is indeed feasible.  Any spreadsheet programmers, or word processor 
programmers would probably be most helpful  (Microsoft Excel programmers would 
be helpful ;-), but anybody that has ever dealt with complex memory management 
in Windows, is welcome to help.  Thanks in advance.
