Can some one tell me what I'm doing wrong.  I use MALLOC to allocate some 
storage, then I call a procedure.  When I return from the procedure I use 
free to de-allocate the memory block.   


My code is as follows: 

/* Convert field to zoned. */ 
zlen = sizeof(decimal (DEC_DIG, 0) ) * 2  - 2;               
znd = malloc(zlen); 
result = QXXBTOZ(znd, zlen, bin, blen, hassign);             

if ( result ) return result;                               
result = QXXZTOC(chr, clen, znd, zlen, dp); 
 
/* Free allocated memory. */                               
free(znd);                                                 



But I get the following errors: 

The requested heap space operation is invalid. 
The pointer parameter passed to free or realloc is not valid.       


Thanks for your help.

Bobby.
