Y'ello Anthony!
23 Apr 97, Kurt Kuzba had to endure Anthony Tibbs's ramblings (shown below).
 KK>> char* FromName[36];
 AT> "char *FromName [36];" ?  This won't/shouldn't even compile
 AT> correctly.
 AT> However, the the method you specified is saying this:  I want a pointer

No, it says "I want 36 pointers, of type pointer to char", It certainly would
compile, and I have used sort of thing a million times: after all that is the
structure of an argv.
But, as you say, it is not right for what this chap wants to do.
 AT> I know it is possible to have a pointer to a
 AT> pointer, but not in this case.)
Yeah, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense in this instance, all he needs is:
        char FromName[36] ;
           (Everyone seems very touchy in here so I thought
            I'd jump on my high horse too.  :)  Sorry...)
