You want to return the newly copied array from the function “AddGrade” ? If so change your parameters to :

void AddGrade ( Grade **&amp;  _numGrades , int &amp;  _students )<br />
{<br />
   Grade ** gradeTemp = new Grade * [ _students + 1 ];<br />
 <br />
   for( int i = 0 ; i &lt; _students + 1 ; i ++ )<br />
       gradeTemp [ i ] = _numGrades [ i ] ;<br />
   _students ++;<br />
  //add code here to delete old "_numGrades" <br />
  _numGrades = gradeTemp;<br />
}

void AddGrade ( Grade **& _numGrades , int & _students )

{

Grade ** gradeTemp = new Grade * [ _students + 1 ];

for( int i = 0 ; i < _students + 1 ; i ++ )

gradeTemp [ i ] = _numGrades [ i ] ;

_students ++;

//add code here to delete old "_numGrades"

_numGrades = gradeTemp;

}
