URGENT HELP (FIRST-YEAR c++ PROGRAMMING)

Hi, I am a first year in Programming please don't speak deep language. Make me understand please.

Okay, please code and paste my code and fix it then paste it here. I've been trying this problem for 6 days now. Still nothing, please.


THE FOLLOWING IS MY CODE:

[CODE]
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>

using namespace std;

size_t readNames(string filename, string surnames[], string firstnames[]);
void sortSurnameFirst (string [], string[], size_t);
void displayNames (string [], string[], size_t);
void sortFirstNames (string [], string [], size_t);

int main()
{
int const SIZE = 1000;
size_t count = 0;
int choice;

string names[SIZE];
string surnames[SIZE];

ifstream inputFile;
string filename;
int number;

cout << "Enter the file name: ";
cin >> filename;

inputFile.open(filename.c_str());

if(inputFile)
{

while(count <SIZE && inputFile>>surnames[count] >> names[count])
{
count ++;
}

inputFile.close();

cout << " 1. Sort names by surnames then first names "<<endl;
cout << " 2. Sort names by first names then by surnames "<<endl;
cout<< "Enter your sorting choice: " ;
cin >> choice;

if (choice == 1)
{
cout<< "The names are sorted by surnames then first names"<<endl;
sortSurnameFirst (surnames, names,count);
displayNames(surnames, names,count);
}

if (choice == 2)
{
cout<< "The names are sorted by first names then surnames"<<endl;
sortSurnameFirst (surnames, names,count);
displayNames(surnames, names,count);
}

}

else
{
cout << "The following file doesnt exist" << endl;
}



return 0;
}


void sortSurnameFirst (string surnames[], string names[], size_t size)
{
bool swap;
string sort ;
string temp;
do
{
swap = false;
for (size_t i =0; i < size ; i++)
{
if (surnames[i] > surnames[i++])
{
sort = surnames[i];
surnames[i] = surnames[i++];
surnames[i++] = sort ;
swap = true;


}


if ( surnames[i] == surnames[i++] )
{
if (names[i] > names[i++] )
{
temp= names[i];
names[i] = names[i++];
names[i++] = temp ;
sort = surnames[i];
surnames[i] = surnames[i++];
surnames[i++] = sort ;

swap = true;
}
}



}

}
while (swap);
}


void displayNames( string surnames[], string names[], size_t size )
{

for ( size_t i =0; i < (size - 1) ; i++)
{
cout << surnames[i]<<" " << names[i] << endl;
}
}


void sortFirstNames (string surnames[], string names[], size_t size)
{
bool swap;
string sort1, temp1;
do
{
swap = false;

for ( size_t i =0; i < size ; i++)
{
if ( names[i] >names[i++] )
{
sort1 = names[i];
names[i] = names[i++];
names[i++] = sort1 ;
swap = true;

}
if ( names[i] == names[i++] )
{
if (surnames[i] > surnames[i++] )
{
temp1 = surnames[i];
surnames[i] = surnames[i++];
surnames[i++] = temp1 ;
sort1 = names[i];
names[i] = names[i++];
names[i++] = sort1 ;
swap = true;
}
}



}

}while (swap);
}
