Now, I am converting the arrays to pointers. Hopefully I don't need to start a new thread. Please tell me if I do. When I compile, I get this error:

warning C4700: uninitialized local variable 'total' used

I am going over my code again and again and don't understand. I am calling the initialization function. If I change it from:

Code:
init_total(total);
to this:

Code:
init_total(*total);
the compile again fails.

I'm sure it's something simple I am missing. Here's my code:

Code:
void init_total(double *t);
void report(double *s, char *n[]);

main()
{
	double *total;
	char *name[] = {"Steve Zahn", "Sarah Palin", "Eva Menedez", "Morley Safer", "Pete Rose"};
	int cnum;
	double pay;
	char ch;

	init_total(total);

	do
		{
		printf("\nEnter your employee number (1-5): ");
		scanf("%d%*c", &cnum);
		printf("\nEnter amount of paycheck: ");
		scanf("%lf%*c", &pay);
		*(total+cnum) += pay;
		printf("\nDo more (Y/N): ");
		scanf("%c%*c", &ch);
		ch = toupper(ch);
	}
	while (ch != 'N');

	report(total, name);

	return 0;
}
void report(double *s, char *n[])
{
	int i;

	printf("\nEmployee\t\t\tTotal Sales\n");
	printf("-------\t\t-----------\n");

	for (i = 1; i < 6 ; i++)
		printf("%s\t\t\t%.2lf\n", *(n+i-1), *(s+i));
}
void init_total(double *t)
{
	int i;
	for (i=0; i < 6; i++)
		*(t+i) = 0;
}
