Agghhhhhh memory leak central

Ok that is the last time I develop a large application without any kind of memory checking until the last couple of weeks, before I've gotta hand it in...

I'm not sure whether I'm making it better or worse at the moment, but MSVC 7.0 seems to suck for actually telling you were the allocation took place. If anybody knows how to do this, I want the exact place if possible, I would be very thankful...

I kept wondering why my computer kept crashing before, I think I know the answer know, is 323 bad??? Also a big one of 8000 bytes...

Cheers Jox, I've been wading through that MSDN documentation... Think I've found my problems, its something to do with Newton, which is weird, because I'm convinced I clean it all up properly...

Well I think its just something that Newton does:

Well at least I know how to find out where the memory leaks are now officially...
What I can't understand is why there are so many...
