int makeFile()
{
ofstream myFile;
myFile.open("WishList.txt");
myFile <<varTitle<<":"<<endl;
myFile <<" "<<endl;
myFile <<" "<<endl;

myFile <<"20.)"<<item20<<endl;
myFile <<"21.)"<<item21<<endl;
myFile <<"22.)"<<item22<<endl;
myFile <<"23.)"<<item23<<endl;
myFile <<"24.)"<<item24<<endl;
myFile <<"25.)"<<item25<<endl;
myFile.close();
cout << "Look for your Wishlist called WishList.txt"<<endl;
return 0;
}

is there a way to specify where this saves and if so, how?

The file will be within the same directory as your final build. E.g. C:/.../Project/Bin/Debug/File.txt
Are you running your program from the terminal/command-prompt, or from the IDE?

command prompt

The file should be within the same folder as the executable.

it was, i found it, but is there a way to change where it will save

You'll have to specify an absolute path. E.g.

file_.open("C:/.../Folder/Folder/");
