Hello,

struct {
 char *name;
 int telnr;
} people[100];

Instead of statically allocating an array of 100 of these structures like
I have done, I want to dynamically allocate the array at run-time and
resize the number of structures some where at any time in the main
program. 

I know how to resize char arrays and int arrays but I never (re)sized an
array of structres which can be accessed with something as: ``people[4].name''. 
In Google nothing really usefull turns up.

Can this be done without having to resort to other implementations like
linked lists etc.. ? If so how ?

Thank you in advance.

J.
