    // I believe the problem is with how you have declared your array of items and how you initialize that list.// 1st) Create an assignment operator within your base andderived class. You can not perform the assignment as you havethem stated below. This will not work as it is unknown how totreat the type CWeapon. There is no conversion operator definedto perform that action.// exampleCItem& CItem::operator=(const CItem& Item){    weight = Item.weight;    value = Item.value;    // Assuming that you are dynamically allocating space forthis stored string, and that you are going to use standard CLibraries for string manipulation, and you want a deep copy ofthe data.    // Also recommend you switch over to using the standardstring class std::string.    if( name != 0 )    {        delete [] name;    }    name = new char[strlen(Item.name)];    strcpy(name, Item.name);    return (*this);}or// 2nd) Create a method called Create which will take in the sameparameters as the class constructor. Then, instead of doingsomething like WeaponList[0] = CWeapon(yada, yada, yada)you would do WeaponList[0]->Create(yada, yada, yada);// 3rd) I would recommend you read up on how to use standard template containers, ie std::map, std::vector or std::list.
