How can I get adress of an varible (table, structure) that indicates not only
the position in local space of a program (in win32) but position in memory, so
an other aplication could enter it.
By the definitions od Ansi C the "far*" would be it, but when I run a program
twice (I run the second program without closeing the first) , I get the same
adress, so it can not be an global adress.

Each process gets it's own unique address space which cannot be shared
with other processes. You need to make some Win32 API calls to create a
'shared memory' area for different processes. Try looking up
CreateFileMapping(), MapViewOfFile() & OpenFilemapping().
