    files

    is there a way to jump to a seperate file with code?

    for example

    Code:
    #include <iostream>
    
    using namespace std;
    
    int main()
    
    {
    
    int x;
    
    cout<<"choose from menu\n";
    cout<<"1, search phone book\n";
    cout<<"2, edit phone book\n";
    cout<<"\n";
    cout<<"input : ";
    
    cin>> x;
    
    switch ( x ) 
    
    {
    
    case 1:
              cout<<"goto different file";
              cin.get();
              break;
    
    case 2:
              cout<<"goto different file";
              cin.get();
              break;
    
    default:
              cout<<"incorrect input";
              cin.get();
              break;
    }
    
    
    }

    Yes. Just open the file and process it as required - I'd create two functions (one for choice 1 one for choice 2) that process each file as necessary.

    Code:
    switch ( x ) 
    {
    case 1:
              SearchPhoneBook();
              break;
    
    case 2:
              EditPhoneBook();
              break;
    
    default:
              cout<<"incorrect input";
              cin.get();
              break;
    }
    Good class architecture is not like a Swiss Army Knife; it should be more like a well balanced throwing knife.

    Each file stream can be associated with only one file at a time. However, you can have multiple file streams in any given project and you can change files associated with a given stream as long as you close the first file before associating the stream with the second file.
    You're only born perfect.
