Re: error building Fox-1.7.90 on windows

That is __exactly__ the type of thing that should NOT be a data 
structure. It should be tables in a relational database. SQLite isn't 
difficult to use. It will even let you create in-memory databases if you 
simply can't wean yourself from doing everything in RAM. You can easily 
copy data between tables. Then again, much of your copying is most 
likely "passing" this data structure around. Pass a unique key instead. 
Every function/module can get their own cursor.

If you use SQLite (or some other database library) you could probably 
still be 32-bit.
