to declare a "string" you want to do

#include <string> // note NOT string.h

or you can also use CStrings

Four posibilities I know of:
1.using MSVCRT:
char* or char[](ex char szTest[YOUR_DESIRED_LENGTH]
2.using MFC:
CString szTest;
3 using STL:
#include <string>
using namespace std;
sytring sTest;
4.Using ATL COM:
BSTR myStr; //double byte

hope this helps, s-)

using ATL you can also:
#include<comutil.h>//required for _bstr_t
#include<iostream>//not required for _bstr_t
using namespace std;//not required for _bstr_t
....
//fragment of main:
_bstr_t x;
x = &quot;hello &quot;;
x += L&quot;people&quot;;
cout<<(char*)x<<endl;
wcout<<(BSTR)x<<endl; Ion Filipski
