Error C3861, Passing string to function

I've tried to debug this, watched several youTube videos on the subject, but I still am stumped by why this code is failing me.

I've bolded the actual line that is generating the error

Has the function been declared before you call it?
To add to what Peter87 wrote, pre-declarations are case sensitive so double check your spelling or just copy the function name and paste over it.
Also this function have same semantic as srtncpy(extractString, ComputerColorTable[i], MAX_CHARATER_COUNT)
as it results, it was an issue that the header and the prototype were not in synch when I complied it. Fixed that and it ran just fine. Thanks for the tips, I'd never caught that without your help.
