Re: C++ type conversion question

This seems very offtopic, it doesn't have anything to do with .NET.
Maybe ask at a VC++ newsgroup?

TCHAR is a macro either defined as WCHAR or as CHAR, depending on
whether the UNICODE symbol is defined in your application.

This means that TCHAR* might be a WCHAR* or a CHAR*. In the first
case, copying to a WCHAR[] is trivial (wcscpy or wcscpy_s). In the
second case you can use one of the Ansi-to-WChar conversion functions
(e.g. A2W, MultiByteToWideChar), as described here:
