    Red face Append Function

    Helo...

    I got a small problem here. Is there anyone out there who can solve my problem?
    I writing a program to take out a string from a text file (.txt) and then put this string to another text file.
    While doing this, this string is compared with the second text file, if there's existing string in the second file,
    output error "fail".If there's no same string, put the new string into the text file.

    Yep. I can solve it. But the question is, can you? How about you show us what you have done, and what you're having problems with.

    Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.

    >> Is there anyone out there who can solve my problem?

    There are hundreds of us.

    I suggest you give it a shot and ask questions concerning problems that you have.
    For starters:
    1. read file # 1
    2. read file # 2
    3. compare data
    4. write to file #2 if necessary

    look up ifstream, ofstream and strcmp. (You can do a search on this board.)

    Hmm, you got some problems in your code..

    Code:
    void main(int argc, char * argv[])
    Do not use void main() never.
    You should use int main() and than, return an value at the end of the program.

    Why every time you '\0' the string manually?
    You can do it easily by an simple loop:
    Code:
    for(index = 0; index <= 35; index++)
        string[index] = '\0';
    After you fix this errors, we'll work in the real problem
