   And not very useful if you need to compare them to other memory based   
   variables,   
   or move them to memory based variables. Why do you think I'm using EDX, ECX,   
   and   
   EDI as replacements for original local variables in:   
      
      // _spl:= lift_ptr^._spl;   
      // km  := lift_ptr^.dtv.km;   
      // lptr:= lift_ptr;   
      
      mov     edx, [ebx + offset lift_list._spl]   
      mov     ecx, [ebx + offset lift_list.dtv.km]   
      mov     edi, ebx
