how to append this info
instead of overwriting existing file


#include<iostream.h>
#include<fstream.h>

void main()
{
char first_name[25];
char last_name[25];
char subject[15];
char sector;

//now setup a file stream
//firstly a name and input file

ifstream infile;

//now associate it with a file

infile.open("B:\\persons.txt");

infile>>first_name;
infile>>last_name;
infile>>subject;
infile>>sector;

//now read it!!!!

infile.close();

//display

cout<<endl<<"first_name:-"<<first_name;
cout<<endl<<"last_name:-"<<last_name;
cout<<endl<<"subject:-"<<subject;
cout<<endl<<"sector:-"<<sector;



cout<<endl<<endl;

}//end program

>>infile.open("B:\\persons.txt");

outfile.open("B:\\persons.txt" ,ios::app); //who uses b anymore?

i think you might have to include <iomanip.h>

I know this works for output. You do want this to be put "out" in the file right?
