Re: fopen

The only thing I know is that is works fine if I use
string name = "HELLO.txt";    or if dirstreams then          string name =
fname.path();
FILE * fPtr = fopen(name.c_str(),"r");

the other thing is problems might arise if you pass in directory paths so
you might want to check first
name.isDir()     returns a bool
hope this helps ... but due to my late reply it probably doesn't matter
