How would I go about adding a string array to another string array? I am scanning a file that takes each word and puts it in to a string array wbuf[]. Then I am sending wbuf[] to a function that checks if there is enough room in the lbuf[62] array. If there is enough room it copies wbuf[] into lbuf[62]. I can get it to copy one word into lbuf[62], but I can get it to continue to add the next words without running in to errors. Should i use sscanf(wbuf "%s", lbuf)? Sorry I am relatively new to programming. Thanks in advance.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#define MAX_LINE_LEN 62
int output (char wbuf[]);
int space_check(int line_len);
int get_text(void);
int lbuf_len = 0;
FILE *gettyText;
FILE *csis2;
int main(void){
fopen_s(&gettyText, "getty.txt", "r");
fopen_s(&csis2, "csis2.txt", "w");
get_text();
getchar();
return 0;
}
int get_text(void)
{
int n = 0;
char wbuf[10];
while (!feof(gettyText))
{
fscanf(gettyText, "%s", wbuf);
output(wbuf, n);
printf("test");
n++;
}
return 0;
}
int output(char wbuf[], int n)
{
extern int lbuf_len;
int wordLength;
char lbuf[62];
wordLength = strlen(wbuf); // determines the size of the word
lbuf_len += wordLength;
if(space_check(lbuf_len) > wordLength - 1){
printf("%s", wbuf);
sscanf(wbuf, "%s", lbuf[n]); // This is my problem
strcat(wbuf, lbuf); // This area is the problem
n++;
puts(lbuf);
//printf("%s", lbuf[n]); // This is where I get the error
}
if (space_check(lbuf_len) < wordLength -1){
lbuf_len = 0;
printf("Cleared space_remaining");
getchar();
}
return 0;
}
int space_check(int lbuf_len){
int space_remaining;
space_remaining = MAX_LINE_LEN - lbuf_len;
printf("%d", space_remaining);
getchar();
return space_remaining;
}
