Mike,
Although you can use a library that has the standard C function stuff in it,
that is not the recommended way, as it brings in a new library, uses up your
memory, etc.
The Palm OS has very similar stuff built in, so you should use that.
To find the routines for strings, look in the SDK, which you can see online
at:
http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/docs/palmos/ReferenceTOC.html
Scroll down to section 44 and check out those functions. They are all built
in.
Hope this helps...
Brad
