I would guess that you are getting an error on the
> rec->data = 10;
call, because you are writing directly to data manager memory, which is
prohibited. You have the DmSet part right (but I don't think that's really
what you want to do).
What you need to do, is make a MyRecord variable, set its data value to 10,
and then write out to the record.
I added this into your code. Also, you should use DmWrite, not DmSet. See
the docs for info on what each one does. One sets a record to some value,
and the other actually writes data from a buffer into the record.
You're really close. (Pass the address of your MyRecord struct as the third
arg to DmWrite . . . see below.)
