You're storing the pointer to your data in the database. What you
want to do is store the data itself.
Also, in EffInitRecord (or is it InitRecord -- your source code shows
both), you're returning a pointer to a local variable. This is very
bad, since the data to which you're returning a pointer is reclaimed
(destroyed) once the Init function returns. Thus, returning data to
garbage.
