Re: CString help

Wow! Thanks gang! I had 27 occurrences of "GetBuffer(0)" in my code, and not
one call to ReleaseBuffer.

That's fixed now, though.

I have a little Borland background. There, I had to use AnsiString (like
std::string) and I accessed the data using AnsiString::c_str(). When I first
started using VC, GetBuffer looked like Msft's equivalent. Wrong! :)

Why use GetBuffer here? You dont need it. Just pass the CString.
Operator LPCTSTR will take care of the rest.

Also, you must call ReleaseBuffer after calling GetBuffer:
