Thanks. Its different enough from C++ that I get stuck. Usually with scanf crap. I hate how scanf works.

You are welcome. Yeah, in my opinion, cin is often a lot better for input than scanf().

I ended up finding a really good article on scanf and I was given a better way of tackling that task -- use a string instead and just reference the first element.
