    I suggest reaching for a std::vector<int>. You can then also return it from the function, or, if appropriate, it might be more suitable as a member variable instead. The alternative does involve new[], but I would not use it unless I really have to.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.

    Pass an address of a struct (or class) allocated on the heap around then, (as a function arg)

    Thank you for your suggestions :-)

    I eventually solved it by creating an int pointer.

    ie
    Code:
    int * temp;
    then further down just said
    Code:
    temp = new int[value];
    Thanks for your help - my assignment (a media player) is almost now complete, got some bugs in it that I'm struggling with but i'll start another thread :-)

    Thanks again!
