I advise you to make some sound investments and review your pension arrangements every year.

The problem with this is.......if by any chance password goes wrong.......it will always go wrong in that while loop until the program is stopped and run again......
second problem....when the welcome note arrives it brings a trail, how to eradicate that.....
third problem is i need help with the DELETE key or any other key in password.......plz dont make it complicated........by reading my source code u will already come to know of my poor knowledge of C++ so plz help me......
I am eagerly awaiting ur reply........

while((i=getch())!= 13) This statement is little confusing .
instead use while loop like while((i=getch())!= 'Z')
reliableboy2 (32)
dont worry about that the prob is if the password goes wrong then it is always wrong even if we put it correct.....in order to be make the password correct we have re run the program......copy it and run u'll see

try this code .. Although i haven't checked it

 while(chr=='y'  || chr=='Y'  )
	{
	  memset( Username , 0 , sizeof(Username ) ); 
	  memset( Username , 0 , sizeof(password) ); 
		cout<<"                      LOGIN DETAILS";
		cout<<"\n\nUsername: ";
		gets(Username);
		cout<<"Password: ";
		a = 0; 
		while((i=getch())!= 13)//13 is ASCII code for enter....so the loop goes on as long as ENTER key is not pressed
			{
				if(i>32&&i<127)//ASCII codes for alphabets, numbers & symbols
				{
					password[a] = i;
					cout<<"*";
					a++;
				}
				else if(i=='\b')//When backspace is encountered

					cout<<"\b \b";
					a--;
				}
		} 
		password[a]='\0';

When you print "ACCESS DENIED" you don't set a to zero

reliableboy2 (32)
so where should i add that......can u show me that particular.....

reliableboy2 (32)
I tried the suggestion u told me and edited the above source code........plz check if that is correct
Peter87 (11254)
No that is not right. The problem is that if you don't reset a before inputting a new password the new password will be added after the old one. So if you first enter "ABC" as the password and next time you enter "123", the password will contain the string "ABC123".
reliableboy2 (32)
so how do i reset a plz help......give me the the code of only that loop plz
Peter87 (11254)
Just make sure a is zero when you start reading the password.
reliableboy2 (32)
plz show me the code......i understood what u meant but dont know where to put it......
