You also need to use MemFree on the memory returned by mystring.ToCString() when you've finished with it.
Isn't that what Noel meant?

So if I do:

Trustee.ptstrName = "Users".ToCString()


after I've used Trustee I should do:

MemFree(Trustee.ptstrName)


Is that correct? And I do that before I set Trustee to Null in order for the GC to deal with it right?

I don't have to do any more MemFree calls just because I've used String.FromCString(Trustee.ptstrName) do I?
