Thread: simple dictioanry problem (newbies)

I tried to define a dictionary array like this:

AnsiString dictionary[]= {"bread", "juice", "water"...etc

then as I was testing to see if I can refer to each word seperately, I tried:

Edit1->Text=dictionary[2]; // to print out the word in the edit box

hoping the word juice would come out! but only the letter 'r' came out from the word bread!
how do I get the whole word 'juice"...etc

I don't think AnsiString is a valid datatype or class, try
String dictionary[] = {"bread", "juice", "water"...etc
or
char *dictionary[] = {"bread", "juice", "water"...etc
