    Didn't I JUST answer this??

    printf("%20[^\n] %4.2f %5.2f %5.2f %5.2f %5.2f %5.2f",
    empname,&hours,&payrate,&overtime,&gross,&tax,&net );
    Do NOT USE & in PRINTF.

    Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.

    Ew, globals out the wazoo. You need to include stdlib.h to use the system function.

    >I know that it is something simple that is missing
    Actually, it's something there that shouldn't be.
    printf("%20[^\n] %4.2f %5.2f %5.2f %5.2 %5.2f %5.2f",empname,hours,&payrate,&overtime,&gross,&ta x,&net);

    should be

    printf("%20[^\n] %4.2f %5.2f %5.2f %5.2f %5.2f %5.2f",empname,hours,payrate,overtime,gross,tax,ne t);

    Maybe your solution was too cryptic, I mean you only gave the exact line and described the change to make.
