Description:
Q.   How do I find a null pointer assignment in my Turbo C program?
A.     Open a watch on
     (char * ) 0,s
     (char *) 4,s
     This is the location of the Borland message.  It is also the
     area that will be overwritten if there is a null pointer
     assignment.  The user will be able to watch the Borland
     message while stepping through the code.  When the null
     pointer assignment occurs the message in the watch window
     will changes.  The same thing can be done by opening a dump
     viewer and doing a CTRL-G (GOTO) to 0000.
