Each output item, should be under the column. I'm having big problems trying to get them all lined up. I was given a clue that I should "cut off" text for the title field, as it's running too long and pushing all subsequent lines off. How do I manipulate cout so that the title is limited to a certain number of characters.

Not the cout. See http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/string/string/substr/

[shadowCODE]

#include <iomanip>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

cout<<setw(5)<<"the"<<endl;  //print "the" in a field width of 5 characters
cout<<setw(3)<"jafar"<<endl;   //print "jafar" in a field width of 3 characters
