This test (below) works OK, but when I #include the function into a larger
file I
get an "assignmet makes pointer from interger without a cast (refering to
line five of cts.inc)" msg and I am passing  type char * to it just as in
the test below.   

#include <string.h>
#include "c:\djgpp\cts.inc"
char *pc = "P005.133/C/25K";
int main()
{
float dog;
dog = CallToSort(pc);
printf("dog = %f\n",dog);
}


below is the function "cts.inc":

float CallToSort(char *buf)
{  int i = 0;
   char *tok;
   char **bp = &buf;
   double flo = 0, data[4];
       while (tok = strsep(bp, "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ/")){
         flo = atof(tok);
         if (flo > 0){
           data[i] = flo;
           ++i;
         }
       }
  return data[0];
}

Thanks,
