it's a pointer so it can be operatied on numerically without affecting the 
contents, whch is all a pointer doesn't allow - you can stuill do pointer 
arithmatic on it.


your best bet is probaly to use and array of pointers either like this:

while (booktry[i]) {

 .. do something with i ..

 i++;
}

or some reincarnation (for, do, etc..) of that.
