string?

[technogeek_42]

how can i use a string? what should i include to run string like "technogeek"
is it #include <string.h> or what and what is the syntax for string

[Ancient Dragon]

string.h is for C programs, not C++. The std::string class is declared in <string> header file

#include <string>

using namespace std;

>>what is the syntax for string
Here is a complete list of string functions

[zandiago]

We use:

#include <string>

Just remember that the term "string" generally means an ordered sequence of characters.
In an assignment, you could use something like:

sting actor = "Dani";
cout<<actor<<endl;

The above would print out Dani, when executed. Hope this helps.

You can ask but you won't get an answer. Ask the question in the VB6 board. Besides, I don't know the answer either because I don't write VB6 code.

posting your question to vb 6 forum, you will get many helps in there...

You have to understand character arrays before you will understand how to sort them. google for "sort algorithms", but from what you have already told us I doube you will understand what you read.
