assignmnet error

[KirbyMorph]

I'm getting an error about the assignment of a value to my data type below, any suggestions would be helpful.

typedef struct node{ char data[100]; struct node *next; } Node;
typedef struct list{ Node *head; Node *tail; int size;} LL;

// initializer for memory
blah;blah;blah;

// error method
void addLL( LL *ll, void *p )
{
        Node *newNode;

        if( ( newNode = ( Node * )malloc( sizeof( Node ) ) ) == NULL )
                return;
        // error is right here, doesnt like putting the void pointer
       // p into the char[100] of data
       // says incompatible types in assignment
        newNode->data = p;
        newNode->next = NULL;

        ll->tail->next = newNode;
        ll->tail = newNode;
        ll->size = (ll->size)+1;

        return;
}

Everything else is correct, I've verified with others. However, I cant figure out why the void pointer conversion doesnt work. Ive tried casting as a char* and it doesnt work either and a few friends couldnt help me either. Any help is appreciated.

typedef struct node{ char data[100]; struct node *next; } Node;

Here, data is an array. An array is not a pointer.

You can't assign a char[100] to a pointer, You need to either copy the data from 'P' to 'Data' or make 'Data' a char* then assign to 'P'.
