Sorry for spamming. I posted this in the Lounge on accident: Basically I want to return a string in the form of *location and put into some sort of variable... Here's my class and declaration of items_database

        
class DB_Items
{
public:
	int number;
	char *location;
};

DB_Items items_database[3];
   

Here's part of the Database function:

          
char *return_string DataBase(int look_up_type, int look_up_category,int index)
{
    for (int item_search=0; item_search<=3; item_search++)
    {
	if (items_database[item_search].number==index)
	{
	   return (items_database[item_search].location);
	}
    }

}
          

So, I am just trying to return items_database[item_search].location Am I making any sense? "All you touch and all you see is all your life will ever be --Pink Floyd Need help? Well, go FAQ yourself. Edited by - Nazrix on January 21, 2001 3:19:48 PM

Instead of

  char *return_string DataBase(int look_up_type, int look_up_category,int index)//do thischar *DataBase(int look_up_type, int look_up_category,int index)  

That should solve the problem. Unless I''m missing something....

oh okay that makes sense...thanks
