How can I go from a TCHAR to a char..?
I have tried everything...
CString s.GetBuffer(0) etc..
MSVC6.0 and W2k.

Look up the definition of TCHAR by right clicking on it and selecting "Go to definition". A TCHAR should be the same thing as a char and no conversion should be necessary.
Depends whether UNICODE is defined. If UNICODE is defined TCHAR is wchar_t otherwise it is char. Problem is wchar is both Unicode and MBCS. Not sure how you convert between the two.
If you wish to have it as a char array, cast a pointer to it.
Also, Unicode TCHAR is 16 bits on Microsoft and 32 bits on some Unix platforms. Think very carefully if you have multiple platforms.
