Tony,

> char BitTable[] = {0x01,0x02,0x04,0x08,0x10,0x20,0x40,0x80};
> char *BitTable = {0x01,0x02,0x04,0x08,0x10,0x20,0x40,0x80};

both declarations are not constant var's.
They are normal variables, which are initialized with your initializer list
at startup.
This is valid for the pointer and for the memory pointed by.

If you want, that both (pointer and initialized memory) are constant, write
this
const char BitTable[] = {0x01,0x02,0x04,0x08,0x10,0x20,0x40,0x80};
const char * const BitTable = {0x01,0x02,0x04,0x08,0x10,0x20,0x40,0x80};

AFAIK, this is true for HiTech-C.

Frank
