No goo I cant remember what your wanted to store, but has anyone here told you about ma For example if you wanted and array of integers you could allocate the memory to int *array; int array_size = 100; //can determine this at run time array = (int *) calloc( array_size, sizeof(int) ); // now we can use array as an array array[10] = 678; array[0] = 1000; array[99] = array[10] + array[0]; //done with array so give back memory free(array); Sounds like you need to get a good book on programming. === Matty . http://members.xoom.com/mattpratt/ _--_|\ mattpratt@xxxxx.xxx / \ s3099239@xxxxxxx.xxx.xxx.xx \_.--._/<--Canberra, W2K - The other millenium bug. v Australia _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
