Ok. I got the following problem. I created the following array and executed
a function :

CField* Spielfeld[20][20];

CreatePlayField( Spielfeld );

*************************************************
******** CreatePlayField looks like this ************
*************************************************

// Set PlayField Coordinates and Size
void CreatePlayField( CField* PlayField[20][20] )
{
for ( int tmpx = 1; tmpx<=20; tmpx++ )
{
for ( int tmpy = 1; tmpy<=20; tmpy++ )
{
PlayField[tmpx][tmpy] = new CField;

PlayField[tmpx][tmpy]->SetXCoord( (tmpx-1)*FLD_WIDTH +
(tmpx*2) );
PlayField[tmpx][tmpy]->SetYCoord( (tmpy-1)*FLD_HEIGHT +
(tmpy*2) );
PlayField[tmpx][tmpy]->SetWidth( FLD_WIDTH );
PlayField[tmpx][tmpy]->SetHeight( FLD_HEIGHT );
}
}
}

**************************************
** Till here all this works
**************************************

************************************************** ********************************************
**** Later in the code a function of the CDirect3D-Object 'Direct3D' is
called like this
************************************************** ********************************************

Direct3D.Init(hWnd, Spielfeld);

***********************************
**** ...and the problematic part looks like this
***********************************

BOOL CDirect3D::Init(HWND hWnd, CField* PlayField[20][20], BOOL bWindowed)
{
....


for ( int x = 1; x<=20; x++ )
{
for ( int y = 1; y<=20; y++)
{
m_RFieldRect[x][y] = (PlayField[x][y]->GetXCoord,
PlayField[x][y]->GetYCoord,
PlayField[x][y]->GetWidth,
PlayField[x][y]->GetHeight );

m_lpD3DDevice->ColorFill(m_lpD3DSurface,
&m_RFieldRect[x][y],
PlayField[x][y]->GetColor());
}
}


....

}

************************************************** ****************************************

Try 'CField::GetXCoord()' instead of 'CField::GetXCoord'. That's what I can
see so far. If this does not solve the problem, paste the code of the class
CField.

I assume GetXCoord is a function, so you are missing the ().

The compiler is attempting to take the address of GetXCoord.

Duh! I knew it.. it had to be something this simple.. *g*
I guess coding all night long makes you become this blind to seeing stuff
like this

Thanks to both of you for the quick help anyway

Just think how many hidden bugs the all night session has introduced

Now that you've got it compiling, you might want to stop it from crashing,
also.

You're using indexes from 1 through 20. In C++, arrays are indexed starting
at 0, not 1. Your loops need to start at 0 and only continue while the
index is _less_than_ 20.

Eeeek!
You're right of course. Thanks
Will do
