Yup, but only because i have got the strings working properly .. hows this?
(actually quite simplified -- the structures i changed .. main problem)

#include 
#include 

struct lastcall {
       unsigned char Line;
       unsigned char Name_Length;
       unsigned char Name[35];
       unsigned char Handle_Length;
       unsigned char Handle[35];
       unsigned char City_Length;
       unsigned char City[26];
       unsigned int  Baud;
       long          Times;
       unsigned char Logon[5];
       unsigned char Logoff_Length;
       unsigned char Logoff[5];
       unsigned char Attribute;
       };

struct lastcall lcall;
char name[35];
FILE *lc;
void main(void)
{

lc = fopen("c:\\ra\\lastcall.bbs", "rb");

while((fread(&lcall, sizeof(lcall), 1, lc)) != 0){
       strncpy(l_name, lcall.Name, 35);
       l_name[lcall.Name_Length] = '\0';
       printf("%s\n\r", l_name);
       };

fclose(lc);
}

Sorry about the length :), but this SHOULD actually work ..
(the real source reads in the environment, writes to a file etc etc)

NOW, my problem NOW is i don't know how to handle the ;
long  Times;  and
unsigned int Baud;

Since i can simply copy the others as strings as they are char's, i try to
print the above as decimal, string, integer (and so on) and i get
rediculous numbers (like 11231 for baud rate) or (null) ... can you help
there at all?
Maybe the strucutures i have aren't working well with the baud and times called?

Cheers!, Jahmai.
