Tic Tac Toe

Victor89 (62)
I am trying to make a tic tac toe game.
I get the following error:

error C2664: 'Move' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'char [3][3]' to 'char'
1> There is no context in which this conversion is possible

My idea of the game is the following:
- using a 2D array to draw the board
- making a move by overwriting the 2D array

I need some help because I am stuck.
Thanks!

Line 8. Your forward declaration doesn't match the function you're trying to call.

I know that, but how can I write the function in order to work properly?

Make the forward declaration match the function you're trying to call.

i.e. change line 8 to int Move(char[3][3], int);

Thank you for your answers, I still need some help, but my code has become very long something near 1000 lines...so where should I post?

If you have a specific problem with the code, write the shortest code you can that replicates the problem and post that.

Or you could post the code in a web paste utility like http://pastebin.com/

line 13: board is uninitialized.

line 26: DrawBoard is always going to display the numbers 1-9. It's not going to display the current status of the board.

line 47: You're going to loop forever accepting input from the user. You never display the updated board. How is the user going to know where to move?
