    Problem with array of structs

    I have decalred a struct using:

    Code:
    struct MEM {
           char MEMarray[7];
           };
    And declared an array of structs using

    Code:
    struct MEM arrayOfStructs[10];
    How do I then start storing stuff into my MEMarray?

    Code:
    strcpy(arrayOfStructs[0].MEMarray,"Hello!");

    here is one more example for you

    Code:
    #include<stdio.h>
    
    struct SomeTestStruct
    {
        int SomeDataAsInt;
        char SomeDataAsString[20];
        float SomeDataAsFloat;
    };
    
    int main()
    {
        struct SomeTestStruct SomeTestStructArray[5] = {{10,"Test 1",20.5},
                                                        {20,"Test 2",30.5},
                                                        {30,"Test 3",40.5},
                                                        {40,"Test 4",50.5},
                                                        {50,"Test 5",60.5}};
       int  i;
       
       printf("This is Struct Initialization\n");
       printf("=============================\n\n");
       for(i=0;i<5;i++)
          printf("%d %s %f\n",SomeTestStructArray[i].SomeDataAsInt,SomeTestStructArray[i].SomeDataAsString,
                            SomeTestStructArray[i].SomeDataAsFloat);
       
      getchar();
      return 0;
    }   
    
    /*my output
    This is Struct Initialization
    =============================
    
    10 Test 1 20.500000
