system("pause") in Dev-C++

[Isolde]

Thank you everyone (most eveyone) for all of your help.I still struggled with the counter for the number of students, but all other parts of the program went well . I will continue to work on it until I know how to do it. I learned a lot from all of you, esepcially how to be gracious and polite. You are a great group of people. Keep up the good work.

Thanks again

Hi, just a simple question, infile.open("c:\\stuScore.txt") and infile.open("c:\stuScore.txt"), are there the same? one with "\" and another one with "\\"...

Backslash is an escape character, so it won't even read the first one. You put two to fix this

Thanks guys. I put in 2 \\ & program worked fine.

Just use forwardslash. It works on Win and *nix, and is not an escape character:

infile.open("c:/stuScore.txt");
