<code>
void book::findnme(void) {
int i;
int name, result;
//char temp[20];
cout << "Finding.." << endl;
for(i=0;i<MAX;i++) {
result = strcmp(np[i].name,name);
if (result == 0)
cout << "found!" << endl;
else
cout << "not found!" << endl;

}
}
</code>

it is on the result= line

thanks again.

For some reason, it hasnt seperated the code.

for this i am sorry

what is :

Code:

 np[i].name

defined as in your code? an int?

please post the definition of this (data structure?) and maybe i (or others) can help you out.

oh and use the square brackets [ ] to enclose code, and not the angular brackets < >

ive just noticed that the i has nothing to do with the class that it refers too.... my brains not working anymore...

i think ive sorted it out! thanks for pointing it out!
