Error 4 error C2228: left of '.open' must have class/struct/union
Error 6 error C2440: '=' : cannot convert from 'std::string' to 'char' line86
Error 7 error C2440: '=' : cannot convert from 'std::string' to 'char'line 87
Error 1 error C3646: 'ifstream' : unknown override specifier
Error 2 error C3646: 'inData' : unknown override specifier

can any one figur out what is the problem ??

this is the prog<its not complet yet^___^>

# include <iostream>
# include <fstream>
# include <string>

using namespace std;


//declaring global arrays
int SID[50];//to store ID
string Fname[50];//to store the firsit name
string Major[50];
float GPA[50];
int HRS[50];

//declare function prototype

void RedaData();
//precondition:open the files that have the data
//the size of the array is fixed
//postcondition:save all data into the apropreiat array
void DisplayMenu();
//it will give the user some options to select
//precondition:the option selected must be in the rang
//or give apropriate error massage
//postecondition:depending on the choice of the function call 
//that function
void FindStud();
//precondition:get the student id from the user
//serch for the id in the array 
//postcondition:display the stud info on tghe screen

//stud info
//get the info from the user
//postconditon:add the info to each of the five array 
void DeletStud();
//precondition:ask the user for the id that is wanted to be deleted
//postcondition:serch 4 the id
//set the studID to 0 and the actual data is the same 
//but during printing the summary we will use  the zero
void StopPrint();
//precondition:deleted recordes where the id is set to 0 will not be 
//printed or saved.
//postcondition:print the final report of the student in the screen and the output file
void searchData(int[])
//precondition:get the id nuumber
//serch the id in the array 
//postcondition:return abool valu true if the id eixist. 

     ifstream inData;

int main()
{
  RedaData();
	return 0;
}

void RedaData()
{
	//declaring function scoop variabels
	int ID,TH;
	string Fname,Major;
	float GPAstud;

	//open the file inData
	inData.open("stydInput.txt");
	if(inData.fail())
	{
		cout<< "cannot open the file"<<endl;
		return ;}
	//red the first line from the file
	inData>>ID>>Fname>>Major>>GPAstud>>TH;

	//inilizeing loob condition were we will read the info and send them to the arrays
	

	//its just amatrix serch how do we red form the file if it was like this 
	//if i remember we will use 2 loops
	//one 2 control the raw and 1 the column:)

    while(inData)
	{
       for(int x=0;x<=5;x++)
	   {
		       SID[x]=ID;
			   Fname[x]=Fname;
			   Major[x]=Major;
			   GPA[x]=GPAstud;
			   HRS[x]=TH;
        inData>>ID>>Fname>>Major>>GPAstud>>TH;
	   }
cout<<ID<<'\t'<<Fname<<'\t'<<Major<<'\t'<<GPAstud<<'\t'<<TH<<endl;
	}
}//end of void function 

p.s im using parallel arrays
thanks alot

You missed a ; on line 45...
I'm not sure why doesn't the compiler recognize that...

Also you've named your global and local variables the same, so the compiler doesn't understand which one you mean. (Fname and Major)
