    help with cstrings!!

    this may be a stupid question, or im not thinking correctly, but, im reading in a value from a file that consists of characters and integers (ex. DL948E) and assigning it to a cstring.

    how can i read the whole thing and assign it, since its contains both integers and characters?

    thanx in advance....
