Type conversion problem

[KaidzAccount]

char string[200] = "adhjsanhds";
		SetDlgItemText(hDlg, IDC_TEXTFORM, &string);

The SetDlgItemText function requires a pointer to a string variable, a variable who's value will be used as the IDC_TEXTFORM's text.

But for all the world I don't know what type my string variable must be.

Similar problem when I'm trying to print user input from a textbox to the caption of a MessageBox like so

char myString[200];
char* pointerToMyString = &myString; //I have tried LPSTR instread of *char, also tried &myString[200] and even tried pointerMyString[200] none work
GetDlgItemText(hDlg, IDC_TEXTFORM, pointerToMyString, 200);

MessageBox(hDlg, myString, "you typed: ", MB_OK); //also tried converting myString by replacing it with (LPSTR)myString, (char)myString, etc... 

been messing with this for 3 hours, NO SOLUTION lol.

Help!?

An array name without brakets is a pointer to the array.

Therefore:

char foo[100] = "fhwgads";
//char* bad = &foo;  // makes no sense, bad
char* good = foo;  // works, good
