                cout << "\nInvalid input.";

         	} }
       }

     getch();

}


I got an else misplaced error. Can someone help me out with this. It makes me frustrated. Any help would be appreciated.

You didn't wrap lines 18-37 in {}, so only line 24 is inside the if.

Sorry dude, but i don't understand ya. Care to explain?
Btw, i wrapped the line at 18 but still the error keep appearing.
