error from using CString.GetBuffer (MAX_PATH),

[mrby123]

CString ftitle; fscanf_s(f_ptr_seed_inf,"%s\n",ftitle[ifl].GetBuffer(MAX_PATH)); ftitle[ifl].ReleaseBuffer(); I got error message: Unhandled exception at 0x776015de in MSW_Vib_Model.exe: 0x00000000: The operation completed successfully. Please help

Try taking out the [ifl] from the ftitle object. I don't think you can call GetBuffer() on a character returned from the [] operator.

CString ftitle;

fscanf_s(f_ptr_seed_inf,"%s\n",ftitle.GetBuffer(MAX_PATH));

ftitle.ReleaseBuffer();

How does this even compile? I would have expected a C2228 error.

As Richard said, I've already answered this question. You need to change the fscanf_s line as follows -

fscanf_s(f_ptr_seed_inf,"%s\n",ftitle[ifl].GetBuffer(MAX_PATH), MAX_PATH);
