Can someone help me? I here have a problem thats been bugging me for weeks... I'm currently trying to make a status screen for my menu system, but I have some problems with the string arrays....
Things such as:

PrintString(0, pcname[temp]);
where pcname is holding the character's name return this message:
menu.vc(155) error: ) expected, ] got.
while if I do this
tempstring=pcname[temp];
I get:
menu.vc(155) error: Unknown assignement operator.
And I tried switching versions of V2... V2 V2K and V2k+J all give me those error messages... :(

Are you sure that you have:

string pcname[];

as a global declaration? If you haven't declared pcname to be an array (and all arrays MUST be global) then it's quite possible to see the errors you're getting.

I didn't notice anything in VCC which checks to see if the variable you're using was declared as an array, so that would be a very probably explaination...

Well I finally understood I think... What was the problem, and it was kind of lame... :( After getting Praetor's and Tricron's Posts I took a look at my code to see if I did something wrong with the variable declaration, and a thought crossed my mind...
pcname is declared this way:
string pcname[MAXPC]; in and included system.vc file,
and going back to system.vc I looked at my defines and well.. MAXPC was defined this way:
#define MAXPC 1
I changed the one for a 2 and Yay... Vcc compiled so I guess it was just a wrong array declaration...

Thanks for your help...
