#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;

int main(void)
{
    int id;
    ifstream myfile("tellg_pos.txt");

    cout << "myfile.tellg()= " << myfile.tellg() << endl;
    myfile >> id;  //like as cin >> id

    cout << "id= " << id << endl;
    cout << "myfile.tellg()= " << myfile.tellg() << endl;

    return 0;
}
 
myfile.tellg()= 0
id= 1800567
myfile.tellg()= 12

Did you write any spaces after 1800567?

No spaces. Just the numbers and then pressed Enter.
