Put an ampersand (&) before the zero and your code should work. This
demonstrates what the function is looking for in terms of arguments. It
wants a pointer to the index number for the new record, not the index number
itself. Using &0 will insert the new record at the beginning of the
database.
NewRecord = DmNewRecord(VitalSignsDB,&0,RecSize);
