One possibility, make sure the memory pointed to by 'totalP' will out-live
the field since you're using FldSetTextPtr. (you may be better off using
handles instead of pointers but that's just my opinions) If the scope of
'totalP' is not equal to or greater than the field, the memory it points to
could be lost.
