put this:
FrmCustomAlert(CustomAlert,"Sending R...", NULL, NULL)
it will solve your problems.
maybe "" is interpreted as an empty string, and hence it may
have a pointer.. and since in C, pointers are terminated with
NULL "\0" characters, it has a pointer, which points to some
"strange" memory location.
when you draw it draws everything it can see until the '\0'
character (HEX 0x00).
this would explain your garbage.
