AnsiString to char*

[szcygan]

I know it should be simple, but I can't figure it out: I need to change a String (FileName form OpenDialog) to a *char to use it in fopen(..) function. How can I do it?

Try this
char str[255];
strcpy(str,my_ansi_string.c_str());

That'll get your AnsiString into an array of chars. Common sense is what tells you the world is flat.

That was a quick, and excellent reply, thank you!
