struct array

[Magix]

Hi,

what is wrong with following code ?

typedef struct
{
word payLen;
datatype data[160];
} msg_type;

msg_type mymsg[10];

typedef struct
{
word myData;
} datatype;

mymsg[i].payLen = xxxx
for (k=0; k< mymsg[i].payLen; k++)
{
mymsg[i].payLen.data[k].myData = yyyy;
}

Is this a contest? Is there a prize? How many errors must I
identify? Is it C? Where's 'int main()'? Who do you think you are?
