boost::lexical_cast.

You must have actual space on the other end of the pointer metMetin (via malloc/new and friends) before calling the function.

I didn't understand what did you mean exactly. Where I will make this and how? I tried, I tried, I tried but couldn't use malloc :'(

Code:

---

                    metKrkSys = GetWindowTextLength(hMet);
                    GetWindowText( hMet, metMetin, metKrkSys+1);

metMetin is a pointer and its allocated size is ... 0!
You must allocate space before using a pointer! http://cpwiki.sourceforge.net/Common...kes_and_errors
Do this with new, not malloc.
And then do not forget to free it.

Code:

---

metMetin = new char[hMet];
...
delete [] metMetin;
