You have to lock your memory, as in the following example:

kx =(float huge *) GlobalLock(GlobalAlloc(GMEM_FIXED, sizecount*sizeof(float) )
ky =(float huge *) GlobalLock(GlobalAlloc(GMEM_FIXED, sizecount*sizeof(float) )
kz =(float huge *) GlobalLock(GlobalAlloc(GMEM_FIXED, sizecount*sizeof(float) )

Hope it helps.
