Gremlin Error: Directly Read from DataMgr Data Structure

[Michael S. Davis]

POSE Error: "...directly read from data manager data structure.."

Is this really a no-no?  POSE identifies this as an error and I'm trying
to find the source.

I have some code that gets Names from DB Records as follows:

for(i=0; i<numRecs; i++) {
    RecHandle = DmQueryRecord(MyDB, i);
    RecPointer = MemHandleLock(RecHandle);
    StrCopy(NameArray[i], RecPointer + 2);  // name starts at +2
    MemPtrUnlock(RecPointer);
}

First, would this generate _that_ error?  

And second, is this a no-no?  Why is that a no-no, if it is?

Thanks
