Ok, I think the problem you're having is how the compiler handles string literals by default. Every sting constant such as your "Hello!" has to be stored in your .exe file. By default, I think, VC++ combines indentical string literals into one instance to save space. Most of the time, these are put into programs to be treated as constants. In your case, you're saying it's ok to modify the memory locations that hold "Hello!". Since the compiler combines all instances of "Hello!" into one, all pointers to it will point to the same block of memory. Change that memory and it's changed for all instances.

I think there's a compiler or linker flag to force code generation to not combine string literals but I couldn't find it when I looked. Maybe they did away with it since the last version I saw that had it and now you're stuck with what you're seeing.

One way around it would be to define "Hello!" once and copy it to a separate buffer each time you want to play with it.
You measure democracy by the freedom it gives its dissidents, not the freedom it gives its assimilated conformists.
