Error writing a vector to a file

SlowBug2319 (11)
I am trying to learn how to write a vector to a file, then read that vector to from a file. In the code below, I attempted to write to a file but it gives me an error, the error is C3867. I read through the articles and searched but I haven't been able to find anything to help me solve the issue.
