There are 3 reasons why this could be a problem:
1. They are created dynamically referenced within an array only, not
actually on a form.
2. They are being used to control communication between workstations and the
server (winsock)
3. The program has timers on different forms, and this application has
around 200 individual forms. Users could be on 1 form, or 20 forms, or 3
copies of the same form. (I believe this could lag the system down if I
were to run this command on all open forms)
What I believe to be the problem is that memory is being shifted around when
the timer fires (behind the scenes),
and that API is working with a area of memory no longer associated with the
variable I originally passed. (very bad).
I would like a way to create a variable that its memory address would not be
changed during execution of the API's functions. Any ideas?
Thx again,
