Thanks :) sounds perfect. How would I go about renaming the destination file? does fstream have the capability? what would I use? I haven't really used file storage much.. :/

And it was as simple as that.. the problem resided in my assignment of lCrd -_- I feel slightly embarrassed.. oh well lesson learned, if I've managed to find the local area of the bug simplify the area down to it's components before posting a question.. Thanks again, best advice I could've gotten. :)

A very good point sir. I just get used to doing things like that as I shorten my code.. Perhaps it's a bad habit and should probably always do things this way before hand. Thanks :)

nice to know there are people like you around :) revives my faith in the human race. Keep up the good work sir, I salute you! :D

well here's the weird thing.. using the debugger stops the crashes.. :/ I don't know why but it does.. it's also stopped some other issues I've had with fstream.. thanks.. I guess.. I've never used the debugger before because I use my own tools in each program.. cheers though.

thanks, you truly are a very helpful person.. I'm just curious as an off topic question, what draws people like you to even answer people in such places? Do you enjoy teaching or 'solving puzzles'? just curious, it seems everyone I know in real life would just have a lot of other things they would consider higher priority and never bother helping people out on line. :/

Ok :) thanks for the clarification.. perhaps this is not the subroutine causing the crash after all.. :/ I'd just assumed it was due to my lack of understanding.. :/ I'll have a browse. Note that your time was not wasted if this is the case, I know now what this type does and can use it properly. knowing this isn't causing an issue is a step forward :D

I'm assuming based on the low predictability it has something to do with memory

there is no error message the program simply closes once I call this function, sometimes it runs through the first time, sometimes it crashes strait away.. :/
I could give examples of the strings I would pass to it if that helps but I doubt that has anything to do with the actual issue.

So I looked up null-terminating strings and am a bit more clued in now and understand why I had to use c_str() but that doesn't solve my problem. :c
