No, literals cannot be used in hacks because they live in the
globals' space. Either you can load them as string resources with
DmGetResource or SysCopyStringResource, or allocate them locally,
a la
char error[] = "Error from DmDatabaseInfo";
(if you have enough space on the stack).
I'm not sure what error 4275 is, though...
