Bob,
 This matter of string initialization with double quotes and the COCO compiler
got hashed around here about a year ago.  The gist of it is that except for one
dimensional character arrays the COCO compiler hacks it up.  For two
dimensional arrays and structure initialization the COCO compiler erroneously
loads in pointers to string litterals rather than copying out the strings as it
should.  You have to single quote each character for these applications.
