Dear all;

I want to join three strings become one string. For example

char date1 = "03";
char date2 = "06";
char date3 = "2007";
char new string;

what I need is new string like:

new string =03-06-2007.txt

I will use new string as input file name that will be automatically opened by main program.

thanks very much for your best help.

cheers
marzuki

None of these are strings in C. Your syntax is way off.

Look up sprintf. You can also use strcat if you want a more manual solution, but sprintf is better suited to producing formatted output and storing it in a string.
