char *name is only a pointer. To use it, you need to do something like:

Code:

---

char *name = "Darren"

---

However, you can't then change it, so you'd need something like:

Code:

---

char *darren = "Darren";
char *name = new char[strlen(darren)+1];

strcpy(name,darren);

---

then you can alter name as much as you want.

What about BSTR ?

Er...that's very different.

Use the string class from the STL.
