    Outside of your DOS world, your header file is meaningless.

    I didn't understand what did you mean exactly. Where I will make this and how? I tried, I tried, I tried but couldn't use malloc :'(

    Code:
                        metKrkSys = GetWindowTextLength(hMet);
                        GetWindowText( hMet, metMetin, metKrkSys+1);
    metMetin is a pointer and its allocated size is ... 0!
    You must allocate space before using a pointer! http://cpwiki.sourceforge.net/Common...kes_and_errors
    Do this with new, not malloc.
    And then do not forget to free it.

    Code:
    metMetin = new char[hMet];
    ...
    delete [] metMetin;
