Thanks I'll do some research.=0D
Can you tell me how to put these values in to a struct?=0D

1, "Letter"=0D
2, "Letter(small)"=0D
3, "Tabloid"=0D

etc. I'm having trouble with this.=0D

struct PAPER=0D
{=0D
int Num;=0D
char* PaperStrings[42][1];=0D

PaperTypes.Num =3D 1;=0D

PaperTypes.PaperStrings[42][1] =3D "Letter";=0D

As you can see this is very wrong. I feel an idiot, but all the examples =

structs I have seen do not use arrays or do anything like this, so I don'=
