Trouble editing text file

[NiceS]

Im trying to delete a row of data from a text file with the input prompt from the user. Firstly user will enter the id of the staff and there would be comparison if it match it would update the variables and delete the data from text file. But my data is not deleted from the text file even though it is correct. This function is being called by another function with data pass into

typedef struct
{
	char name[50];
	char id[20];
	char ic[20];
	char address[50];
	char phonenum[20];
}EMPLOYEE;

void delEmps(EMPLOYEE e[], int size)
{
	char deleteID[10], confirm, repeat, ret;
	int j, i;
	ofstream outFile;
	do
	{
		cout << "Enter the emploee ID you want to delete: ";
		cin.ignore();
		cin.getline(deleteID, 10);
		for (i = 0; i < size; i++)
		{
			if (strcmp(e[i].id, deleteID) == 0)
			{
				cout << "\nRecord found, Confirmation for deletion [y for yes]: ";
				cin >> confirm;
				confirm = tolower(confirm);
				if (confirm == 'y')
				{
					cout << "\n";
					for (j = i; j < size; j++)
						e[j] = e[j + 1];
					size--; //The number of employee decrease
					cout << "\nEmployee data successfully deleted !";
				}
				else
				{
					cout << "\nRecords not found";
				}
			}
		}
		cout << "\nAny more employee data to delete ? [y/n]";
		cin >> repeat;
		repeat = tolower(repeat);
	} while (repeat == 'y');
	//UPDATE EMPLOYEE TEXT FILE
	for (int k = 0; k < size; k++)
	{
		outFile << e[k].name << "," << e[k].id << "," << e[k].ic << "," << e[k].address << "," << e[k].phonenum << endl;
	}

	outFile.close();

I didn't see anywhere you open the file between line 14 and 48.

> for (j = i; j < size; j++)
You have a j+1 subscript, so your last iteration will access out of bound of your array.
You should have

for (j = i; j < size-1; j++)

> void delEmps(EMPLOYEE e[], int size)
If you want the caller to see this
> size--; //The number of employee decrease
Then declare the function as

void delEmps(EMPLOYEE e[], int &size)

The file is read and stored in another function and the data was passed to this function and there was no problem with it.
I did realised the first problem of the array being out of bound and changed it. However the program does not run the same way as intended. Since i just want to update the text file after i deleted. Eg when i delete the first record and confirm the deletion, the text file rewrritten by line 45 to 50 is still the same and the first record is not deleted. I do not want the caller to see it unless it is called but i just want to update the text file but it is not updating

Thanks salem c i think i misunderstood your sentence as i have just found out i really did not open the output file to be written thank you
