Sorry, I meant to say StrLen instead of StrCopy in my last message...
so to fresh everyone on what code is messing up the CharPtr charRatio
variable
<code>
NewTxtRatioH = MemHandleNew(StrLen(charRatio) + 1);
</code>
Do I need to do a lock on the CharPtr charRatio before making the call to
MemHandleNew and StrLen? And how do you Lock a variable?
Many thanks everyone for your help...

Did you lock the variable before StrCopy?
