I'm having trouble with taking a compound string and printf'ing the real
string contained in it.  In other words, I can create a compound string
from a string, but I can't take a compound string and un-do it to get the
string it was made from.  I've tried using DwtInitGetSegment and
DwtGetNextSegment but to no avail.  I must be doing it wrong, but I don't
think so...

Can anyone out there help????  A small sample of code that works would be
of great help.  Thanks!!!!
