Parallel Array and an Input Text File

[camarowheels]

I have a text file for my input and I need to store this information into two arrays. The data in the file is organized in columns of "ID's" and "Wages" like so.

1234 9.75
4567 10.50
8912 7.25

I m trying to store the data into two array's in the same loop.

#include<iostream>
#include<cstring>
#include<fstream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    char file[255];

    const int MAX=20;

    int data,cnt;

    //arrays initialized to zero
    //to easily track changes
    int id[MAX]={0};
    float payRate[MAX]={0.00};

    ifstream inFile;

    //user input into cstring "file"
    cout<<"Please enter the file name: ";
    cin>>file; inFile.open(file);

    //gather input from file and store in array
    for(cnt=0;cnt<MAX;cnt++)
        inFile>>id[cnt]>>payRate[cnt];

    //display the array elements
    for(cnt=0;cnt<MAX;cnt++)
        cout<<id[cnt]<<" "<<payRate[cnt];
}

So far I can only input and display "1234" and 9.75.

How would I iterate through the rest of the data?

Thanks

Okay, so I've made a rookie mistake. I've gone back and simplified some stuff and found that I left off the stream manipulator in my output loop in line 32. Because I found this little error I have confirmed my program does read in my data from the file into the right arrays from what I can tell.

Anyway, I haven't figured out how to make the for loop in line 27 to quit when it comes to the end of the data in the file.
