Does anyone know of a simple way of reading an entire structure
from a disk? I'd like to avoid having to read each element of the
structure. Here's what I tried:

/* ************************************************************ */
typedef struct
{
          char  name[33];       /* Company name */
          char  addr1[33];      /* Company address 1 */
          char  addr2[33];      /* Company address 2 */
} address;

address  data;



fscanf(fp, "%address", &data);  /* This DOESN'T work. */
/* ************************************************************ */

Please e-mail any ideas to Mark Maslar at:
     maslar@icd.ab.com     (Internet)


Thanks in advance,
                   Mark Maslar
