Comparing a structure char array to a string ....... 1

[johnfdutcher]

The 'C' compiler returns a message:
parse error before '||'

when compiling this line of code, given that 'rec' is a structure of which 'regnbr' is a member
i.e. char regnbr[4]:

if (strcmp(rec.regnbr,"XXXX&quot == 0) ||
(strcmp(rec.regnbr,"xxxx&quot == 0) {
return 0;
}

This test looks to me like a lot of them I see in the 'books' ????

[tt]
if (strcmp(rec.regnbr,"XXXX") == 0) ||
[/tt]
Check the number and balance of your parentheses
The || is outside the top-level () of the if statement
