Your variable names are too long, which decreases readability. Having
such a long name does not convey any more information than a shorter
name such as "numArgs" (or "numArguments"). Not to mention that
Hungarian notation is ugly.
Also, since your program does not make use of the command line
arguments, you might as well just omit the parameters to main.

This variable name is misleading, since its name implies that it holds
some sort of a count, rather than the user input.
John> int nCounter = 0 ;
Variables should only be introduced in the contexts in which they are
needed. (Same with pnTmp)

Better to deal with the error condition first. It is much shorter, and
much more straightforward.
if ((pnStorage = ... ) == NULL)
{
fprintf(...);
exit(1);
}
...
Also, you should be using realloc to do reallocating, instead of
manually copying every element.

Better to exit immediately, using "exit(1)". Setting the return code,
and then checking it in your while condition makes the while condition
much harder to read. Using exit also eliminates the need for another if
statement below.
"Returncode" is also a completely non-descriptive name. You should
choose something better.
