[comp.windows.ms] program lock up upon termination

Hi, I have a program that locks up the system upon termination, 
this happens right after PostQuitMessage(); is executed and the control
should be returned to MS-DOS executive, but instead the computer just 
hangs.  The program seems to work find overall.

A related question, before I quit I free up some memory structures/buffers
that I allocated in LocalMemory, what's the best way to allocate these 
memories, i.e. what flags should be passed to the LocalAlloc?
One of the structures is just a text buffer, about 2k and should not be
moved or anything, it's locked upon creation; the other is a linked 
list/tree each node of which is locked upon creation as well and should
not be moved/touched by windows untill I unlock the nodes and discard them.

thanks for any info,
