to Steven.

                    ^^ error at this plase. "Bear" is the string constant, 
not char constant. You must declare variable for it like this:
        unsigned char MosterName[10]; // 10 -- max length of string + 1, 
which // will put in this variable;
 SD>    Monster_Name = "Bear";
 SD>    clrscr();
 SD>    printf("%s", Monster_Name);
 SD>    getch();
 SD>    return(0);
 SD> }
 SD> The warning I get is this :
 SD> Warning Nonportable pointer conversion in function main
   Does this programm work correctly?
 SD> Any ideas how to get rid of this?  I know it doesn't hurt the

 SD> My next question is how do you use dos commands in C++.  I mean
 SD> if I wanted to make a program that could show all the files in a

    See help on header files "dos.h", "io.h", "dir.h". All of dos function 
must discribe in ones.
 SD> My last question is this.  How do you save to a seperate file
 SD> (name of person, age, other information), and how do you retrieve
 SD> this information in the same program?
   Use structs, like this:
   typedef struct
   {
       char Name[20];
       int Age;
       char MiscInfo[20];
   } TPresone;
   For write it to file use following construction:
    ......
    TPersone Pers;
    FILE * OutFile;
    OutFile = fopen("filename","wb");
    // cheking for correct open.
    fwrite(&Pers,1,sizeof(Pers),OutFile);
    .......
    fclose(OutFile);
   For reading operations use this (or like this) construction:
    ............
    TPresone Pers;
    FILE * InFile;
    InFile = fopen("filename","rb");
    fread(&Pers,1,sizeof(Pers),InFile);
    ..............
    fclose(InFile);
                                                           Commander Wolf
   If translator does not find bugs in programm, call to system programmer,
                     hi will find bugs in translator.
