<P>You could change your code to use C++ strings instead of char*.&nbsp; That way, you 
<DIV>wouldn't have to write your own == function, as it is one of the methods of the C++ string class.&nbsp; </DIV>

<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Ok here is my dilema. 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Scattered throught my code is the following line: 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;if(!strcmp(var1,var2)) 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;.... 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;What would be the best way to change that to 
<DIV></DIV>&gt; 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;if( var1 == var2 ) 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;.... 
<DIV></DIV>
<P>
