Thanks for your replies , paul you have helped me out a few time cheers.
So my plan is to split into a char array and save each char into a new memory location.
As i want to send the data over the serial port ... example : $123456789* and so char n[] = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5......
i want to loop though the data coming in from the serial port and add each char into a new memory location the idea is to use a unique char to indicate the begining and end of the char array so i can use the serial port of other tasks etc not just this . So for this example "$" means start and "" end of the data . ($123456789)
Can someone help me get started adding the chars between "$" and "*" ?
thanks again
