hello
i need a way in C++ to store strings (set at runtime) in an array referenced by an index, essentially a c++ collection out of vb.
If any one knows how to do this please give me an example of what you mean. thankyou!

also if this an ok FileExist function? i mite have made sum mistakes :)

ifstream blah("sexual.m3n");
if !blah
{
//file don't exist
return;
}

there are many ways to do the first; one way would be with an std::string and an std::vector<string>. Check the STL docs ( http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/ ) for more info on those.
An other approach would be with alot of pointers etc (psion would probably kill me if I tell you more about this, as it's not very OO :D)

The second part is ok, provided you put some parantheses around !blah, eg

...
if( !blah )
...

excellent.
thanks alot CViper!
