Hello everyone, Here is my short program: void main( void ) { int day = 1, year = 2002; char month[6] = "May", bd_string[60] = {'\0'}; strcat(bd_string, (char) day); strcat(bd_string, month); strcat(bd_string, (char) year); } What I am trying to do is to copy "1 May 2002" into the string "bd_string". I try as above and it doesn't work. Please help! Thank you! Thomas. _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY!
