Instead of declaring record structures as static variables, you can
define them but create them at runtime as dynamic memory structures
using MemPtrNew or MemHandleNew. That way they don't take up any
space in your PRC file.
If you do know the field types and lengths, you can access them
directly: get the record (DmGetRecord), lock it (MemHandleLock),
access the data, unlock the record (MdmHandleUnlock).
