One of the sample programmes in Charles Petzold's book "Programming Windows
95" (through which I am currently working my way) uses an array of POINT
structures <POINT pt [NUM] ;> to draw a graph with >Polyline (hdc, pt NUM)
;>

He sets NUM to 1000 and the (Visual C) .exe file he provides works for me.
If however I compile the .c file with RSXIDE, I get a fatal error upon
execution (the one that advises you to contact the supplier if the problem
persists) if NUM is greater that about 500; lower values work fine.

Am I doing something wrong?
