some problems with saving to a file.

[boozy]

I have a problem with my saveing to a file.. I can save it but it gets saved as numbers, and strange signs..
here is the program, a little long tho.

#include <conio>
#include <iostream>
#include <stdlib>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <errno>
#include <dir>
#include <io>
#include <sstream>
using namespace std;

int const ant=2;

void save();
void load();
void meny();

struct Person
{
        char fornavn[31], etternavn[31];
        int alder, arslonn;
};

void error1()
{
        cout << "\nFile do not exist!!!";
        getch();
        load();
}

void error()
{
        cout << "\n!!ERROR!! make sure your filname is under 20 char. !!ERROR!!";
        getch();
        return;
}


void Lesinn (Person P[])
{
        for (int i=0;i<ant;i++)
        {
	        cout << "\nSkriv inn den ansattes fornavn: ";
                cin >> P[i].fornavn;

                cout << "\nskriv inn den ansattes etternavn: ";
                cin >> P[i].etternavn;

                cout << "\nskriv inn den ansattes alder: ";
                cin >> P[i].alder;

                cout << "\nskriv inn den ansattes \x86rslonn: ";
                cin >> P[i].arslonn;
         }

         meny();
}



void save(Person P[])
{
        ofstream fil;
	char filename[17];

        clrscr();
        system("dir /b *.sav");
        cout    << "\n\n";
	cout 	<< "Name of savefile? : ";
	cin 	>> filename;

	int handle;
        handle = creatnew(strcat(filename, ".sav"), 0);
   	if (handle == -1)
      	{
      	        cout << "\nFilen eksisterer!";
      	        cout << "\nOverskrive?[y/n] ";
      	        char valg21 = getch();
      		if(valg21 == 'n')
                {
         		save(P);
            	}//if
        }//if

	fil.open(filename);
	if (!fil) {error();}
        else
	{

		for (int i=0;i<ant;i++)
		{
			fil << P[i].fornavn << endl;
                        fil << P[i].etternavn << endl;
                        fil << P[i].alder << endl;
                        fil << P[i].arslonn << endl;
                        fil << endl;
		}
	}
	fil.close();
        meny();
   }


void load()
{
        clrscr();
	ifstream fil;
	char filnamn[17];

        system("dir /b *.sav");
        cout    << "\n\n";

        cout << "Filen du vil loade [filnavn]? ";
	cin >> filnamn;

        strcat(filnamn, ".sav");


	fil.open(filnamn);
	if (!fil) {error1();}

	else
	{
                cout << endl;
                char temp[100];
		for (int i=0;i<ant;i++)
		{

                        cout << "\nAnsatt nr. " << i << ".\n";

			fil  >> temp;
                        cout << "Den annsattes navn er: " << temp;

                        fil  >> temp;
                        cout << " " << temp << "\n";

                        fil  >> temp;
                        cout <<	"Den annsattes alder er: " << temp << "\n";

                        fil  >> temp;
                        cout << "Den annsattes \x86rslonn er: " << temp << "\n";
                }
        }
        fil.close();
        getch();
        meny();
   }

void process(stringstream& input)
{
        Person Ansatt[ant];
        string temp;

        input >> temp;

             if( temp.length() && temp == "load" )  load();
        else if( temp.length() && temp == "save" )  save(Ansatt);
        else if( temp.length() && temp == "quit")   exit(1);
        else if( temp.length() && temp == "new")    Lesinn(Ansatt);
}

void meny()
{
        string command;

        clrscr();

        gotoxy (5,4);   textattr(4  << 0); cprintf("Meny Valg:");

        gotoxy (5,7);   textattr(8 << 0); cprintf("\x86pne tidligere lagret fil (load).");
        gotoxy (5,8);   textattr(8 << 0); cprintf("Skrive inn ny fil (new).");
        gotoxy (5,9);   textattr(8 << 0); cprintf("Lagre filen (save).");
        gotoxy (5,10);  textattr(8 << 0); cprintf("Lukke programmet (quit).");

        gotoxy (5,12);  textattr(9 << 0); cprintf("Ditt valg?: ");
        getline(cin,command);

        while( command.length() )
        {
                process(stringstream(command));

                gotoxy (5,12);  textattr(9 << 0); cprintf("Ditt valg?: ");
                getline(cin,command);
        }
}


main()
{
        mkdir("save");
        chdir("save");

        meny();

}

and I was wondring if there was maybe a better and more compact way of making the same program?
thanks.

sorry about the text, some of it is in norwegian.
