Thanks for the quick answer guys. It works now! I will use the "slower" version of the code. As I'll be familiar with pointers I will use the "faster" version.

Hi, I'm new to this platform, I love it, it's cheap and powerful enough for my needs. I'm also trying to improve my C knowledge, I've using PicBasic a lot and I'm much more familiar with it I'm trying to assign the 4 bytes of a long int to 4 different variables.
