You allocate memory for the string block using
gStringsBlock = MemPtrNew(numRecords * 3);
How large are your strings? If you've got strings of 3 characters each, you
need to allocate one extra byte for the NUL terminator. If your strings are
longer, then you'll need to find some other sum that will give you the
amount of memory needed.
