Converting CHAR * to char

I nead to convert the CHAR* that I get from the edit control to a char

Code:

---

CHAR *dtext;
GetWindowText(DRIVE,dtext,1);//get drive letter from EDIT
char dletter;
// This is where the conversion should take place
FSOUND_CD_Play(dletter,1);

---

Searching the board answered 100s of my other questions but for this one i cant really find what i'm looking for. :D
Thanks

ok looks like you want a drive letter so it must be exsiting at index 0 of dtext
to get it you can simply say:
dletter=dtext[0];

Try and tell me if this works

Well, your code would crash, because you're not allocating memory to that pointer. Second Its only a char, so send a memory adress, instead of declaring a pointer.

Code:

---

char dletter;
GetWindowText(DRIVE,&dletter,1);//get drive letter from EDIT
// This is where the conversion should take place
FSOUND_CD_Play(dletter,1);

xErath's code worked.
