Honesty, I don't understand what Viraj is talking about,
but here is the solution:
Replace StrCopy by MemMove:
MemMove(myform->formName, buffer, sizeof(myFormStruct ));
StrCopy is for null-terinated strings, not for bunary structures.

where's the memory for formName ??
myform->formName = (Char*)MemPtrNew(MAX_SIZE * sizeof(Char));
StrCopy(............
Frankly, even the statements before the StrCopy could land you in trouble,
since you're assigning a constant string to a ptr that isn't constant...
Please go through a good book on C programming first.
