I was wondering if anyone can tell me how i can create a dynamically 
allocated 2-dimensional array of chars. i have:

char *dynamic_map;

in my declarations, and then later in a function:

dynamic_map = new char[ms_x] [ms_y];  (ms_x and ms_y passed into function)

but this gives me a 'constant expression required' error.
any help would be appreciated.
