Help! Just a simple program, but I can't get it to work.

I have to write a program for school that opens a file, reads in the first 50 words of a paragraph into an array, then print the words to an output file. Everything appears to be working, but when I view the output file it is nothing but garbage! Can someone please help me? Here is what i have so far:

#include <stdio.h>


void main()
{
char infile[81];
char outfile[81];
char word[50][20];
int i,j;
FILE *fin, *fout;
printf("\n Enter a input file name.");
gets(infile);
fin=fopen(infile,"r");
printf("\n Enter the name of the out file.");
gets(outfile);
fout=fopen(outfile,"w");
if (fin!=NULL)
{
if (fout!=NULL)
{
for(i=0;i<50;i++)
{
for(j=0;j<20;j++)
{
word[i][j]=0;
}
}
for(i=0;i<50;i++)
{
for(j=0;j<20;j++)
{
fscanf(fin, "%s", &word[i][j]);
}
}
for(i=0;i<50;i++)
{
for(j=0;j<20;j++)
{
fprintf(fout, "%s", word[i][j]);
}
fprintf(fout, "\n");
}
}
else
{
printf("\n Error opening the output file!");
printf("\n The program will end now!");
}
}
else
{
printf("\n Error opening the input file!");
printf("\n The program will end now!");
}
}

Thanks in advance!!

your inner loop is a problem!

fscanf(fin, "%s", &word[i][j]);
this reads a string into a char -> BAD

try this :)

for(i=0;i<50;++i)
fscanf(fin,"%s",word[i]);

and btw: you do not need to initialize word with this nested loops!!

you generally do not need to initialize variables, but if you think you need it, then use memset() or initialize during declaration...

The program also says that the words must be limited to 20 characters in length. Sorry I didn't out that in the first post.
