Thank you, Jan Zizka, Roman Kellner
I would expect that the allignment has only influence on the address of
variables, not on the total size of a structure. It looks like the compiler
calculates the size of the structure to be a multiple of the largest item in the
structure.
What I want is to allign each variable in the structure to it's own size, but
the total size of the structure to be the actual size. Is this possible?

struct { unsigned char Value2; unsigned char Value3; unsigned char Value4; }
Value;
sizeof(Value) = 3;
struct { unsigned short Value1; unsigned char Value2; unsigned char Value3;
unsigned char Value4; } Value;
sizeof(Value) = 6; (not 5)
struct { unsigned long Value1; unsigned char Value2; unsigned char Value3;
unsigned char Value4; } Value;
sizeof(Value) = 8; (not 7)
