Since then, I've changed the call to getTempName() to
sprintf(achFile,"MSR%05d",0) and then to sprintf(achFile,"MSR%5d",0) and
then to sprintf(achFile,"MSR00000") and finally to strcpy(achFile,"MSR00000").

The first three changes resulted in IPMD reporting an access violation, while
the last call simply hung the app again.  I'm having trouble opening an
annotated listing in IPMD so I can't verify the code that is being generated.

My compiler options are:

-C+ -Gd- -Ge+ -Gm+ -Ms -O- -Re -S2 -Sa -Se -Sp -Ss+ -W3

If *anyone* has any ideas, *please* let me know ASAP!

Cheers,
