do/while Loop not working

Diabolique (11)
I cannot for the life of me figure out why this loop is not working. It should restart the program when a user selects one of the valid inputs, but instead the program exits and ignores the do/while loop and the system("pause") at the end.
For simplicity's sake, I'm just including my main() section and not the functions that accompany it because I don't think they're relevant to this problem. If anybody would like me to include them, I would be happy to oblige.
Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong here?

} while (option == "A" || option == "a" || option == "B" || /*etc.*/);
Your ifs on lines 75, 80, and 85 are incorrect for the same reason.
