Gary, An "Enforcer hit" means that the program is referencing off a null pointer (ie, window = NULL; SetAPen(window->RPort, 0) — boom — you've just tried to reference from location 0), or you're writing to low mem. All in in, you're trashing low mem and at that point the system is very fragile and can crash without warning. You wouldn't dimension an array to 10 then try to stick 20 things in it, would you? An Enforcer hit just as serious — you're referencing memory you do not own — in a multitasking system you are asking for trouble (and crashes).
