    Unhappy Still stuck, please help

    hi, quickly read my previous message:
    http://www.cprogramming.com/cboard/s...&threadid=6616

    How do I implement what Fordy recommended. And whats the parameters for the Strcpy()?

    1 more quick thing, but the above is most important. Know any good sites for learning the finer side of Strings (all most bizarre to me coming from Java)... Something intermediate.

    Thanks

    char* strcpy(char* destination ,const char* source)

    copies null terminated string source to destination ( which must somehow have been previously allocated ( array/new/malloc)). destination is returned.
    Free the weed!! Class B to class C is not good enough!!
    And the FAQ is here :- http://faq.cprogramming.com/cgi-bin/smartfaq.cgi

    dont forget to add 1 to your memory allocation. This will account for the NULL that is added.
