How to fix: undefined is not a function?

Help for C++: How to fix error C2664 on my function?

• READ ME: This might be a stupid question with an obvious answer, but bear with me because I don't have a programming teacher. I'm teaching myself, and this is the first language I've started to learn and I've started very recently. Okay, so the problem is that I keep getting error C2664: 'strcmp' : cannot convert parameter 2 from 'char [][100]' to 'const char *' The function I am trying to make is one that will search a 2 dimensional character array by checking each row if it matches a 1 dimensional character array, and this is what I have. bool search( char search[] , char list[100][100] , int x ) { for ( int i = 0; i < x; i++ ) { if ( strcmp ( search , list ) == 0 ) return true; else return false; } } This is what I have in the main function: bool searchResult = search( searchEmployee , employeeList , listNumber ); searchEmployee is a character array, employeeList is a character array that has rows and columns, and listNumber is an integer. This is the function prototype: bool search( char[] , char[100][100] , int ); Is there anything I need to change in the coding of the program to get rid of the errors? I really need to fix this error, I have the rest of the code cleaned up. Thanks to anyone in advance :)

• Answer:

  Change the declaration to this and it should work __ bool search( char search[] , char list[100][100] , int x ) { for ( int i = 0; i < x; i++ ) { if ( strcmp ( search , list[i] ) == 0 ) return true; else return false; } }
