Thanks for ALL ITS working now>> CHEERS Ajmi

Thanks all but I need hello to be a pointer because it might be passed as an argument to some function (like in case of use 'recv' in socket programing) in the program. Actually I submet a very simple program but what if the program read hello from the keyboard and send it to another side in a socket connection, ofcourse, I will need hello to be a pointer. so the change must be somewhere in the program rather than the decleration of hello. but where?!! thanks again Moloza Ajmi

Hello all.. for the following program I got headache about the switch statment: if I use switch(*hello) I got a compile error : switch quantity not an integer! if I remove the stat I got a runtime error: segmentation fault!
