It finally works. Ted pointed out that I had my if/else backwards. 

Heres the code...does exactly what I'm expecting now. The Pool fills up
quite nicely...

-- This is a file so I can learn how to do pointers in Ada95 --
-- Try not to laugh too much. I'm a former C junkie, and it shows. --

with Ada.Text_IO; use Ada.Text_IO;

procedure Point_pract is

	type Numb_holder; type Numb_ptr is access Numb_holder;

	type Numb_holder is
		record
		  Number: Integer; Next:   Numb_Ptr;
		end record;

	N: Numb_ptr;

	s : string(1..15); len : natural; quit : constant String := "q";

	anthr_numb : integer := 0;

begin

	loop
		Put_Line("Enter a number here: "); Get_Line( s , len); if
		s(s'first..len) /= quit then
			anthr_numb := Integer'value(s(1..len)); N := new
			Numb_holder'(anthr_numb, N); New_Line;
		else
			N := N.Next;
			
			while N /= null loop
					
			   Put_Line( N.Number'img ); N := N.Next;	   
										
			end loop;										
		end if;
		
	end loop;

end Point_pract;

Now I can go over to a real program, and put this to use.

Thanks for your patience.

Clueless.
