Confused. Please help

[bwill31]

I'm working on this project for my C++ class. When I run the program, all I get is File did not open! Program terminating! Here is my code. Can somebody take a look at it and help me figure out what I'm doing wrong so I can get the entire program to run?

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <fstream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <cstring>

using namespace std;

const int MAXCHAR = 101;
const int CAP = 100;

struct Cart
{
char itemName[MAXCHAR];
char itemPrice[MAXCHAR];
char itemTotal[MAXCHAR];
};

void menu();
char getCommand();
void exeCommand(Cart [], int &, char);
void addItem(Cart [], int &);
void showList(Cart [], int &);
void findCart(Cart [], int &);
void loadData(Cart [], int &);
void addItem(ifstream &, Cart [], int &);
void saveData(Cart [], int &);

int main(void)
{
Cart shopping[CAP];
int size = 0;
char option;
loadData(shopping, size);
do
{
menu();
option = getCommand();
exeCommand(shopping, size, option);
}while(tolower(option) != 'q');
}

void menu()
{
cout << "Welcome to Smart Shopping Cart! :\n"
<< "(a) to add an item\n"
<< "(s) to show the items list\n"
<< "(f) to find an item by item name\n"
<< "(q) to quit\n";
cout << "Please enter an option: ";
}

char getCommand()
{
char ans;
cin.get(ans);
switch (tolower(ans))
{
case 'a':
case 's':
case 'f':
case 'q':
cin.ignore(100, '\n');
return ans;
default:
cout << "Illegal input.";
cin.clear();
cin.ignore(100, '\n');
system("cls");
menu();
return getCommand();
}

}

void exeCommand(Cart list[], int &size, char ans)

}

cin.get(itemPri, MAXCHAR, '\n');
cin.get(junk);

cin.get(junk);
strcpy_s(list[size].itemName, name);
strcpy_s(list[size].itemPrice, itemPri);
strcpy_s(list[size].itemTotal, total);

}

void addItem(ifstream &inFile, Cart list[], int &size)

if(!outFile)

}

}
}

void findCart(Cart list[], int &size)

{
int i = 0;
char junk;

cout << "This will allow you to search for an item in a shopping cart." << endl;
cout << "Enter Item Name (less than 101 characters.): ";

cout << "found it";
}

It's not finding your ShoppingCart.txt file.

Make sure that file exists and is in the correct directory.

I have it in the directory. I noticed that I have ShoppingCart.txt as my inFile and ShoppingCart.txt as my outFile. Would that matter or would that need to be changed?

They should be different files
