    Reading Files

    I have a file that stores high scores for games as an int, but I want to be able to read a string from the same file so I can include the name of the person who set that score. I can read multiple int's but not an int and string. How do I do this? Thanks for your help.

    You can open the file with r+ for read and write.
    Then you can both read and write to the file.

    Outside of your DOS world, your header file is meaningless.
