Hi. I have made a .ini file but when I tries to read it I always get some weird letters after the word and I don't know why.

I just want it to say "Hello!" without all the extra letters.
Does anyone knows why?
Code:
void ReadINI()
{
   char FileName[50] = "Addresses.ini";
   char* Buffer;
   FILE* File;
   errno_t Err;
   size_t Result;
   long lSize;

   Err = fopen_s(&File, FileName, "rb");
   if(File == NULL)
      Exit();
   else
   {
      fseek(File, 0, SEEK_END);
      lSize = ftell(File);
      rewind(File);

      Buffer = (char*)malloc(sizeof(char) * (lSize + 1));
      if(Buffer != NULL)
      {
         Result = fread_s(Buffer, sizeof(char) * lSize, 1, lSize, File);
         if(Result == lSize)
         {
            char Text[50];
            sprintf_s(Text, "%s", Buffer);
            MessageBoxA(NULL, Text, NULL, MB_OK);
         }
      }
      fclose(File);
      free(Buffer);
   }
}

Add a null terminator.
Text[lSize] = NULL;

Thanks Symbol, It is working as it should now.

@GMZorita:
I didn't understand how to use the reading part of it, but thanks for trying to help.
