Are you sure? MSDN says "szName: Array of 80 Unicode characters that receives the name of the DMO". > If you want to pick up errors like passing the wrong size into functions > then I would suggest using an automatic checker that is able to use > semantic information, like Microsoft's PREfast. > Your implied presumption may not be correct. But, in any case, when arrays are passed as arguments to functions they are converted to pointers, so sizeof(szName) would represent the size of a pointer to the array, not the size of the array itself. -- Andy.
