please help me, I'm rewriting a program I made before because I lost the
source and I want to allocate a number of text strings that are 500
characters long.
So I tried this:
char *m_IDs[500]=(char *)malloc(m_NumberOfStrings);

That obviously doesn't work, but I can't remember how to do it.

Thanks in advance,
