It should not even compile without errors since this statement is not terminated by a semi-colon:

Code:

int jimmy[Height * Width]

I suggest that you post your actual code (copy and paste, if necessary), and please post it in [code][/code] bbcode tags.

EDIT:
Incidentally, I think that you need two arrays: the two dimensional array source and the one dimensional array destination. Alternatively, you use a one dimensional array and access it as a two dimensional array (but that seems the opposite of what you are asking for). Or, you use a two dimensional array and access it as a one dimensional array via a cast (but in practice, this should be avoided).

I really don't get what you're trying to accomplish here. The code you've posted does nothing but assign some random values to the first three elements in a one-dimensional array. If you want to transform a 2-d array to 1-d, just do a cast. If you want to copy it then do the cast and use memcpy (height * width * sizeof( int )). Or, if you insist on doing it the hard way, source[ n ][ m ] == destination[ width * n + m ].
