How can a string variable not hold a string ? It might hold an empty 
string, but what is a "no-string" ?

Of course if you define a pointer to a string and initiate it with a 
random address, its TAnsiRec will hold some 
invalid/inconsistent/meaningless information, but I think this is con 
only happen as  the result of some buggy code.
