Well you just could use basic maths to create your 4. dimension

You could create a memory block (last dimension) of 18 * 45 cells
Now if you want to access the correct address you just need to do (x * 45 + y), x would be 0 - 17 and y 0 - 44

The only disadvantage would be that the compiler won't be able to recognize the size of the string with sizeof

thanks neroi have a question. For example i put in [4] in 5

soo i want to know where is my string
i will make 5*45 to know the beggining
and 5*45+10 a string with string[9] to know the end.
Am i right?

Nope, just like always if you want to access [4][5] you just do [4 * 45 + 5] pretty simple

But you always need the size parameter (in strcat, strmid, ...) because the compiler thinks it is a cell we are calling and assums a size is 1
