 __PARGRAB8
 Get parameter and grab 8 times it's memory
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Function:
 __PARGRAB8:FAR

 Description:
 This is the exact same function as __PARGRAB, except that it allocates eight
 times as much memory as the size of the parameter supplied. For operations
 on strings where more than the actual size is required. Also use __RETFREE
 to return the string to Clipper and free the memory.

 Example:
 See __PARGRAB
 Same as the __PARGRAB2 and __PARGRAB4 routines. The XPbanner() function uses
 this one, for instance.
