Here's a quick pointer question for the gurus in the group.
When creating a new pointer, when is it appropriate or not appropriate
to set the allocate_heap keyword? In a nutshell, could someone please
summarize the issues that need to be considered. Are there downsides
in terms of speed or extra commands that need to be considered. Is
array size a consideration?

I rely on pointers quite heavily these days. I just wish I knew more
about the dos and don'ts.

Thanks,
M. Katz
