Change treeNode::data to a string. Then search the code for "data" and examine each usage of the variable to see what (if anything) needs to change. This may sound a little tedious but trust me, it 's a good way to catch all the cases.

sorry dhayden, I not understand well. can you explain and guide me

As I understand it, you need to change the tree to contain a name instead of a number. So you need to change treeNode's data member to a string:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
 
class treeNode
{
	public:
		treeNode*left;
		treeNode*right;
		std::string data;
};


Then you should go through the code, looking for "data" and seeing what (if anything) needs to change because it's now a string instead of an int.

I have tried to change the code, but its not working. can you please help me :(
