 JL> give me a CLEAN example of how to copy the strings from a

                              ^^^^^^^^^^^ ??? 
                              
 JL> struct LCrecord {
 JL> unsigned char Line;
 JL> unsigned char Name[36];
 JL> unsigned char Handle[36];
 JL> unsigned char City[26];
 JL> unsigned int  Baud;
 JL> long          Times;
 JL> unsigned char LogOn[6],
 JL> LogOff[6];
 JL> unsigned char Attribute;
 JL> };

This is a structure definition only, it contains struct members within.
You need to create an array to call it structure_s_.

It should be declared.. struct LCrecord MyRecord[HowMany];  

 JL> I then Open the file, declare some strings that i copy info

 JL> .. a proper example would be greatly appreciated.
I'm not sure what you mean here, are you getting data from a file and 
transferring it into the structures, or are you attempting to read a data 
file containing these structures ?

How about posting the relevant part of your code, and make it easier for 
us. ( well, me at least :-))

The etc,etc part and the bit after would be good :)
