Thanks a lot, anyway I had rewritten the code using frread and fwrite, 
forgot to do an fflush,
got empty output files , almost broke my computer , added an fclose just 
after the fwrite,
got nice output files, cried in happiness, and swore to write clean code 
an hour before I
read this mail ;-).

regards,
Joy.
