You can do this:

char arr[5][] = { "item1", "item2", "item3", "item4", "item5" };

The strings themselves are allowed to be of variable length, but the string array has only 5 elements. Modify as necessary.

True. The second is just more "expressive." And rather than asking whether you can, try it!

Thanks for the lookout, Null and Void (can I call you N&V?)

Exactly why I didn''t respond in the first place, I figured he''d go try it on his own eventually

I don''t care how people abreviate my name

, I''ll sometimes even type it as ''nav'' since it is somewhat awkward to type out.
