I think that the error is with the line 20 because the second time the program doesn't read it.
put cin.ignore(); in line 47 :)

This won't solve the problem. You must put cin.ignore() after every cin >> whatever; statement.
@usandfriends
I put it only in line 47 and it works for me
You are the bests really!!!! My teacher doesn't tell me about cin.ignore() but I will use it all the time, thaks!!!

I put here the code, it works really well !!!!!!!!! =)
