Hi :

main() {
char *ptr;
ptr = (char *)malloc(150 * sizeof(char));
/* ptr holds the starting address of the array */
/* use pointer arithmetic from here on */
}

Enjoy !

Hi,

The reply does work in one function. When passing back to caller function, accessing the strings assigned in the called function gave different output in caller function.

I created an array of struct which contains a variable like char fileName[150] and it work fine when it is passed back to caller function.

Thank you any way.
