I'm not sure your question belongs here.  However, it sounds like you need some basic knowledge on using C++ (and C) strings.  I refer you to

http://www.wtvl.net/mike/webjr/begcpp.htm

Strings in C and C++ are stored and character arrays, not char.  There is also, I understand, a C++ string object in the draft ANSI (yes?  not sure).

Hope this helps.
