char to string's a cool scene. Dig it!
 VK>> char stringvar[90];
 VK>> char charvar;
 
 EL> strcat takes *char as parameters... so try
 
 EL> strcat(stringvar, &charvar);

  I'll tell you why: because it's garbage. This will try to copy
characters until null ('\0') is found. But since charvar is only a
single byte, and because there's no way of knowing what is in memory
directly after that one byte, and because some OS chuck a wobly if you
access memory that doesn't belong to you, this will result in
undefined behaviour. Anithing could happen!
  Now, I've already given you a couple of solutions, so I won't bother
reiterating. But one of my solutions was to use strncat() instead of
strcat(). Think about that.
