Unless you have "av := ...;" in Do_S, why not just make it mode > in? I'll try that. I'm a little confused though. (let's change the name "at" to al_t, i quickly wrote down the example with short identifiers of which at happened to appear, i know it's a reserved word! i was tired) a_ac is a general access type if av has mode "in" then how can i modify the fields of the record. surely this would be dissallowed or does it mean you can't modify it's existance/null status but can modify it's data?
