Memory leak in mfc

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hello, I'm writing an app using VS2005. I'm getting a memory leak in
the following code.

//-----------------------------
//Get the data back (16 bytes)
CString dataRead = CReader.GetData();

int i = 0;
char docArray[15];

//Take the first 14 bytes out
for(i=0; i<14; i++)
{
docArray[i] = dataRead[i];
}
docArray[14] = '\0';

//Get the value on to a CString
document = docArray;

document.Trim();

memset(docArray, 0, 0);

//-----------------------------------------

document is a CString declared in the .h file.

The leak occurs when I set:
document = docArray;

Please notice I don't do:

document = dataRead;

because I only need to get the first 14 bytes in dataRead, the last
two bytes are used for documentType.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks.
