of course, AArray[i].Name is just a pointer to some random memory.

static struct AStruct *AArray = MemPtrNew(sizeof(struct AStruct) * 5)); // for
AArray[0-4]
if (AArray == 0)
-> error
If you want to initialize everything with zero, use MemSet.

Should work with the above, but do not erase debug unless you don't need
AArray[i].Name anymore (it's just a copy of the pointer, not a copy of
the string!)

AArray[i].Name = MemPtrNew( --- length of string + 1 --- );
StrCopy(AArray[i].Name, fileName);
P.S.: Don't forget to MemPtrFree any memory you allocate.
