aptr=MemHandleLock(newrecord);

Try it with "a.name" not "&a.name".  Like this...
DmWrite(aptr,0 ,a.Name,length);
length += 1;
DmWrite(aptr,length,"\0",1);
length += 1;
DmWrite(aptr,length ,a.notes,StrLen(a.notes));
 

Remember to write the trailing NULL here, or your 'notes' string will 
not be terminated correctly.  The simplest fix would be to write it as...
DmWrite(aptr,length ,a.notes,StrLen(a.notes)+1);
...becaus a.notes (in your structure) already has the trailing NULL.

MemHandleUnlock(newrecord);
