how to ignore whitespaces in fscanf()

I need to use fscanf to ignore all the white spaces and to not keep it. I tried to use something like the combination between (*) and [^\n] as: fscanf(file," %*[^\n]s",); Of course it crashed, is there any way to do it only with fscanf?

code:

int funct(char* name)
{
   FILE* file = OpenFileToRead(name);
   int count=0; 
   while(!feof(file)) 
   {
       fscanf(file," %[^\n]s");
       count++;
   }
   fclose(file);
   return count;
}

Solved ! change the original fscanf() to : fscanf(file," %*[^\n]s"); read all the line exactly as fgets() but didnt keep it!
