This problem is driving me nuts!(function call)

Trying to pass some strings and integers into a menu class.
menu.initialize should take a string, string, array of strings, array of integers and an integer. That's exactly what I'm passing to it too!

main:

Code:

---

string mainHead = "Main Menu";
    string mainPrompt = "Enter choice: ";
    int mainNumChoices = 7;
    int checkNumChoices = 3;
    int saveNumChoices = 4;
    int mainChoices[7] = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7};

    string mainBody[7]= {"Add Checking", "Add Savings", "Remove Checking",
            "Remove Savings", "View Checking", "View Savings", "Exit"};
    menu newMenu;
    newMenu.initialize(mainHead, mainPrompt, mainBody[7], mainChoices[7], mainNumChoices);

---

menu:

Code:

---

//menu

#ifndef    menu_h
#define    menu_h

#include <string>
#include <iostream>

const int MAX_NUM_ITEMS = 10;
using namespace std;

class menu
{
      public:
            menu();
            menu(string, string, string[], int[], int);
            ~menu();
            void initialize(string, string, string[], int[], int);
                  //Title, prompt, body[MAX_NUM_ITEMS],
                  //current choice[MAX_NUM_ITEMS], numChoices)
            void display();
            int get_choice();
            void run();



      private:
              int choice, numChoices, choices[MAX_NUM_ITEMS];
              string title, prompt, body[MAX_NUM_ITEMS];

              bool validate_choice();

};

#endif


//menu.cpp

#include "menu.h"


void menu::initialize(string _title, string _prompt, string _body[],
                                  int _currentChoice[], int _numChoices)
{
          title = _title;
          prompt = _prompt;
          numChoices = _numChoices;
          for(int i = 0; i < numChoices; i++)
          {
                  currentChoice[i] = _currentChoice[i];
                  body[i] = _body[i];
          }
}//! End of constructor

I just don't get it. It's that damn & sign again. I swear that one symbol is kicking my ass lately. I did a pretty thourogh(sp?) search and couldn't find anything, plus having tried various things for about 2 hours now... Can anybody help a poor soul out?

>> newMenu.initialize(mainHead, mainPrompt, mainBody[7], mainChoices[7], mainNumChoices);
When you put mainBody[7], you are not passing an array, you are passing the element at index 7 in the array, which is just a string. Since mainBody and mainChoices are arrays, just use mainBody and mainChoices by themselves:

Code:

---

newMenu.initialize(mainHead, mainPrompt, mainBody, mainChoices, mainNumChoices);

That did it. I guess I should have asked on here sooner, and of course it was something simple. Daved you're a saviour!
