What happens if you assign Attachment [i] to a string variable and then cast
that to the PChar?
>From experience I have struck problems before when casting a function call
result, this may have something to do with it not being a variable. In your
case there may be something in converting what is effectively an array element
without affecting other elements in the same array. The best I have found with
PChar is to only cast it over string literals or variables.
