I got the POCO program going (first and last name and their lengths), but I used the strlen() function rather than picking up on your hint to use the "char lname[]="x"" form of the variable declaration. I'd like to understand what you had in mind. Can you give me another hint? Chuck Jameson Silver Tongue Software

I'd like to understand what you had in mind. Can you give me another hint? We're jumping ahead here <we haven't reviewed strlen() yet>. The point of the char lname[]="x" method was to show that there were two ways of defining the value of lname, and one of them can input the data in the variable declaration itself and establish its size. <<<Jerry<<<
