im trying to assign the info in the linked list, to an array, so that i can peform a bubble sort on the code. but the username(funcuser variable) wont print out in the do while loop. i would think this code is correct. here the functions code, and the struct declaration. thanx in advance.

struct input
{
char user[30];
char id[20];
int grades1;
int grades2;
int grades3;
int grades4;
int grades5;
int avg;
input *next;
};
int j,i=1,funcavg[50];
char funcuser[50][36];
current=head;
cout << " UsernameID numberAverage
" << " ------------------------
";
do
{
strcpy(funcuser[i]," ");
strcat(funcuser[i], current->user);
funcavg[i]=current->avg;
current=current->next;
i++;
}
while(current!=NULL);
for(j=1;j<i;j++)
{cout << setw(1) << funcuser[j][36] << setw(12) << funcavg[j] << "
";}

funcuser is a two dimensional array...you should have a subscript in both the strcpy and the strcat statements.

yea, ive done that, and i get these errors.

Ah yes, I forgot that part. The str functions all take dynamic character arrays as their arguments. All you need to do is put an address-of operator in front of the character array names:

strcpy(&funcuser[i], " ");

ok, that worked without errors, but when it prints out, i get nothing from those variables, but at least im not getting those weird ass symbols....
