    Code:
    #include<stdio.h>
 void main(void)
{
FILE *inputf;
char filename[40];
nt c;
printf("Input name of the text file");
scanf("%s",filename);
if (inputf = fopen(filename, "r") == NULL)
{
printf("ERROR: %s cannot be opened.\n", filename);
exit(1);
}
while ((c = fgetc(inputf)) != EOF) fputc(c, stdout);
 fclose(inputf);
 }

    THANKS FOR THE HELP GUYS...

    Start by getting rid of void main (should be int main), and reading this.
    And then indenting a little better.
    And for counting upper case letters, you can use the function isupper.

    I suggest you look in some documentation. MSDN is a great resource. Knowing how to read documentation is a very important skill to a programmer.

    Don't post multiple threads containing basically the same question.

    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
