Hi,
I'm having a few problems using a strucutre.

struct iCoords

{

int X;

int Y;

};

iCoords myCoords[5] = {-1, -1};

myCoords[0].X = 325;

myCoords[0].Y = 240;

myCoords[1] = {225, 340};

I can initialize the struct fine with the first line of code, but there
after it complains.

For the second and third lines where I try to initialize the two X and Y the
compiler tells me I'm missing a ';' before '.'.

One the fouth line the compiler tells me I have too many initializers.

Can anyone explain what I'm doing wrong here please? :(
