Body
First off, there is a big logic error. The two for loops: <pre><code> for(i = 0; i < 27; i++) { for(k = 0; k < length; k++) { if(secretword[k] == alphabet[i]) { secretword[k] = '*'; } } } </code></pre> Says: <ul> <li>for all characters in the alphabet, <ul> <li>iterate over all characters in the string, and then <ul> <li>if that character in the string is equal to the current alphabet character: <ul> <li>replace it with an asterisk. </li> </ul></li> </ul></li> </ul></li> </ul> Because you're iterating over the whole alphabet, you'll replace all of the string with '*'s. What you probably want is something like: <pre><code>for(k = 0; k < length; k++) { if(secretword[k] == guess) { secretword[k] = '*'; } } </code></pre> instead. There are some other problems. This needs to be after secretword is read in: <pre><code> length = strlen(secretword); </code></pre> Otherwise you'll read the length of the uninitalised word. Change it to something like this: <pre><code> printf("You Get six chances to guess all of the letters in a phrase\n"); printf("Enter the secret word/phrase: "); scanf("%s", &secretword); length = strlen(secretword); </code></pre> Also, this: <pre><code> scanf("%s", &guess); </code></pre> Should probably be: <pre><code> scanf("%c", &guess); </code></pre> since you're planning to only read a <code>char</code> rather than a string. <hr> Also, the 27 in this line: <pre><code>char alphabet[27] = {"abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"}; </code></pre> Is correct, because you want to include the null terminator at the end of the string. However, this: <pre><code>for(i = 0; i < 27; i++) </code></pre> Will read up to <code>alphabet[26]</code>, which will be a <code>'\0'</code>. You probably don't want to replace these <code>'\0'</code>s in the string (and you won't see any if you're only going up to <code>strlen(secretword)</code> characters - since <code>strlen()</code> counts up to the first <code>'\0'</code>). Changing the loop to only go to 26 characters stops you doing an unnecessary pass over the <code>secretword</code>. It should probably be <pre><code>for(i = 0; i < strlen(alphabet); i++) </code></pre> Or, even better (as suggested by wildplasser): <pre><code>char alphabet[] = {"abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"}; .... for(i = 0; i < sizeof alphabet -1; i++) </code></pre> <hr> One last thing - your program will crash if you don't have enough space in the <code>secretword</code> array to hold the string read in. You can get around this by asking scanf to read only 19 characters: <pre><code>scanf("%19s", &secretword); </code></pre> Note that scanf will terminate the string with a <code>'\0'</code>, so <code>%19s</code> may put up to 20 bytes in to the string.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
