I think you said you're using an array of characters:
struct Record {
char Ground[1];
};
If so, you also need to compare 'u' to the first character in the array,
like this:
if (aRecord->Ground[0] == 'u') {
}

Essentially, I have a structure that includes a char (char[1]). I
assign it a value based upon the state of some device. In this case,
"s" or "u". I would like to then use this in a boolean expression,
such as:
if (aRecord->Ground=="u")
You are comparing aRecord->Ground to the pointer address for the
string. You'll always get false, I should think.
{
FrmSetControlValue(frmP, FrmGetObjectIndex(frmP, UnGnd),1);
}
Unfortunately, "aRecord->Ground=="u", always returns "false", even
when I set its value equal to "u". I seem to be dealing with some
issue of accessing the zeroth character in the string within the
structure, but I could be misinterpreting this. I'm simply not sure
how to do this. The char was declared as: Ground[1].
Do it like this instead:
if (aRecord->Ground=='u')
So you are just looking at the value of that one character.
