Pointer to object

[Sharan123]

I can not paste the whole code cause problem is in my concept about making a pointer to an object there are 3 classes Account is the base class and CurrentAccount and SavingAccount are derived from Account .
Now the problem is that when i try to use any function it can use only function of Account class and not of any other class but i thought ptrc should acess CurrentAccount class but it doesn't whats the problem whole code can made availible but it will make it only vaque other than that it works

Account *ptrc[10];
Account *ptrs[10];
ptrc[c]=new CurrentAccount;
ptrc[c]->add();
ptrs[s]=new SavingAccount;
ptrs[s]->add();
