    Question just starting

    How would you go about writing a code fragment that opens a text file for reading. using input.txt as the name of the file


    this is a small part of a big program, and i cant figure out how to do it, well i thought i did, but it dont work, so if anyong could help, it would make my night eassier.
    thanks

    fopen()

    Post your code if you need further help.

    When all else fails, read the instructions.
    If you're posting code, use code tags: [code] /* insert code here */ [/code]

    Check out fopen, fread, and fwrite on MSDN. They should include examples.
    Away.

    If you've ever actually used MSVC++ with the MSDN installed you'd know just how handy it is. It has nothing to do with plugging it. It's damn handy.

    Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
