Thread: Getting the files from OFN_ALLOWMULTISELECT

I'm using this code to grab the files:

Code:

char szFiles[1024], szFileTok[260];
char *p;
lstrcat(szFiles, lpstrFile); // ofn.lpstrFile = lpstrFile;
p = lpstrFile;
while(*p)
{
    p += lstrlen(p) + 1;
    wsprintf(szFileTok, "|%s", p);
    lstrcat(szFiles, szFileTok);
}

My problem is that szFiles returns:

Why the garbage in the begining?

Thanks

> Why the garbage in the begining?
Because strcat() appends to whatever string is there, and since you don't initialise your string, you end up with random garbage at the beginning.

Use strcpy() to copy in the first string, then cat afterwards.

Ah...ditto

Thanks
