These are some posibilities
Example1:
char* Buffer = "Your string 1";
Caption = String(Buffer);
Example2:
char Buffer[] = "Your string 2";
Caption = String(Buffer);
Example3:
AnsiString Buffer = "Your string 3";
Caption = Buffer;
Example4:
AnsiString Buffer[] = {"Your string 1", "Your string 2", "Your string 3"};
String S = "";
for (int i=0; i<ARRAYSIZE(Buffer); ++i)
{
S += Buffer[i] + " ";
}
Caption = S;
Example5:
char* Buffer[] = {"Your string 1", "Your string 2", "Your string 3"};
String S = "";
for (int i=0; i<ARRAYSIZE(Buffer); ++i)
{
S += String(Buffer[i]) + " ";
}
Caption = S;
Notice that you assign a value to the buffer like that
char* Buffer = "Your string 1";
only at declaration.
If you declare a buffer without initializing it, such as
char* Buffer;
You cannot use the assignment operator to initialize it:
Buffer = "Your string 1"; // Error
You can use strcpy() or strncpy() later to initialize it
