Hello folx.

I'm working with THINK C 4.0.2.  I'm trying to do a simple SFGetFile and 
FSOpen procedure to open up a file so I can do some processing.  For some
reason, it seems that the SFGetFile is getting a bad address, and I get a
system bomb when FSOpen is called.  Any ideas?  Check out my code below.
By the way, the SFGetFile dialog box comes up, and myWindow shows up, too.
Everything points to a problem with either where reply points to, or a problem
with the way I'm handling FSOpen.


..
{
Point where;
SFReply *reply;
int sourceFile;

where.v=100;
where.h=100;
SFGetFile(where," ",0L,0,'',0L,&reply);
myWindow=GetNewWindow(314,0L,-1L);
ShowWindow(myWindow);
SetPort(myWindow);
MoveTo(30,30);
if (FSOpen((*reply).fName,(*reply).vRefNum,&sourceFile)!=noErr)
   DrawString("\pCan't FSOpen File.");
else
   DrawString("\pFSOpening file.");
FSClose(sourceFile);
}
(I hope there's no typos in this!!! :-) )
