Use something like that:

/**
* Get the list of symbols available on this platform.
* The function will resize and fill the supplied array with
* the symbol names and return the number of symbols.
*/
int getSymbols(string &sym[]){
   int i;
   string symbol;
   int f = FileOpenHistory("symbols.raw", FILE_BIN | FILE_READ);
   int count = FileSize(f) / 1936;
   ArrayResize(sym, count);
   for (i=0; i<count; i++){ 
      symbol = FileReadString(f, 12);
      sym[i] = symbol;
      FileSeek(f, 1924, SEEK_CUR);
   }
   FileClose(f);
   return(count);
}

use it like this:

int sym_count;
string sym[];

int init(){
   int i;
   sym_count = getSymbols(sym);
   
   for (i=0; i<sym_count; i++){
      Print(i + " " + sym[i]);  
   }
}
