How do I generate spaces into blank chars

[smurf12125]

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
 string my_string;
    cout << "This program allows you to store data in another location.";
 cout << "  ";
 cout << "Type all of what you want to save into the file";
 cout << "  ";
 system ("pause");
 ofstream myfile;
 myfile. open ("linkfile.txt");
 string x;
 cin >> x;
 myfile << x;
 myfile. close ();
return 0;
}

I need for my program to recognize spaces as blank chars so that you can input more then one word into the file. Help is greatly apreciated!

You could use std::getline(std::cin/*...*/) in order to read a whole line from the standard input.

Here's a bit of reading:

Good luck!

You can use std::getline to read the whole line.
getline(cin, x);
