You probably meant to use _tcscpy() here instead.
This works like a charm
_tcscpy(st.detail.Name,TEXT("Williams"));
_tcscpy(st.detail.Address,TEXT("B-33 Lane 5"));But another problem arises cannot set values in long and DWORD variables
struct Detail{
wchar_t Name[25];
long Age;
wchar_t Address[100];
};struct Student{
Detail detail;
DWORD code;
};Student st;
st.code = 1;but st.code stores a default value of -16843010 and same problem with long data type st.Details.Age = 25 stores 65278, instead of 25.:confused: :wtf: MODIFIED: _tcscpy_s() now works. i was making a small mistake. Now it works.._tcscpy_s(st.detail.Name,_tcslen(st.detail.Name),TEXT("WILLIAMS"));

yes you are right. but when i use

Have you considered:
st.code = 1;
st.st.Age = 25;
_tcscpy_s(st.st.Name, sizeof(st.st.Name), TEXT("WILLIAMS"));
_tcscpy_s(st.st.Address, sizeof(st.st.Address), TEXT("BB-33 LANE 5"));For clarities sake, you might consider renaming the

You need to look more closely at the code snippet I provided. You should not be assigning or referencing
st.Detail. In yourStudentstructure,Detailis a type of structure, not an instance of one."One man's wage rise is another man's price increase." - Harold Wilson

I just compiled your code with my changes. It compiled and ran fine.
