<identifier>: POINTER TO <data type | function block | program | method | function>;
SP16 help and onwards describes:
<pointer name>: POINTER TO <data type | data unit type | function block>;
So, the functionality of declaring pointers to programs and methods/functions has been altered, what caused this decision? Was it a documentation error perhaps? I'd love to experiment with overloading methods or functions by using pointers but this seems to close that door.
Hoping to hear about this :-)

As i know, a pointer to program or to method had never worked. So they only fixed the documentation.
