Anyone up for another problem? :) An iterator points to a list and a position within in that list. The problem is getting a pointer to the list itself, which is an "in" parameter (it's not modified) to a function. What is a good way of getting the pointer to the list? 'access doesn't work since list is constant, and I don't want to make the parameter an access type since it's not convienant to declare lists as aliased all the time. Sorry for asking so many questions, Chris
