PLZZ help as i need it to work very urgent.. thanks
Please use code tags. You can get them from the <> button in the format box.

You say xstring header... I don't see anything to do with any "xstring" in your code, nor do I see any calls to a size function. Did you maybe post the wrong code?

-Albatross

that's why i am confused.. i only used <string> in declarations ..
it's not actually an error, but it's where program break when i use debugger..
after this error window "Unhandled exception at 0x00b73db6 in PROJECT.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0xcdcdcde1."
Please use code tags it makes it easier for people to help you.

the problem that you are having is that you create your song object in your menu function so every time you access your menu function a new song object is created, and set to NULL. so your root variable is always equal to NULL
