Ok. I could use strcpy() to copy the .c_str() result in my char array?

If you absolutely need to fill a char array use std::string's copy method for that: char buf[100]; boost::lexical_cast<std::string>(myNumericVar).copy(buf,100); See Josutti's The C++ Standard Library 11.2.4 Alternatively boost::iostreams::array_sink to directly stream to a char buffer. Jeff
