As I understand it, a character array can contain a string, amongst other things. So in a ten-character array, if the first three characters are 'A', 'B' and 'C', and the fourth character is zero, then it contains the 3-character string "ABC" at the beginning (and the other 6 characters can contain anything). But the more you look into this, the more complicated it gets (so that same array also contains the string "BC", and the last 5 characters form a 5-character array, which may or may not contain a string of it's own, and so on). So don't worry about it too deeply. -- Bartc
