User Input and File Handling

In my game I am trying to get the user to type in his/her name and write the name and score into a file.

Here is some of what I have

Code:

void GetName()
{
  newname[0] = ' ';
  length = 0;
  clear_keybuf();
  while(!key[KEY_ENTER])
  {
    clear_bitmap(buffer);
    blit((BITMAP*)data[newscore].dat, buffer, 0, 0, 155, 100, 333, 204);

    if(keypressed())
    {
      ch = readkey() & 0x00ff;
      if(length < 20)
      {
        newname[length + 1] = ' ';
        newname[length] = ch;
        length++;
      }
    }

    if(key[KEY_BACKSPACE] && length > 0)
    {
      newname[length - 1] = ' ';
      length--;
    }

    if(key[KEY_SPACE])
    {
      newname[length + 1] = ' ';
      newname[length] = '_';
    }

    textout_centre(buffer, font, newname, 320, 188, -1);
    blit(buffer, screen, 0, 0, 0, 0, 640, 480);
  }

  score10 = score9;
  score9 = score8;
  score8 = score7;
  score7 = score6;
  score6 = score5;
  score5 = score4;
  score4 = score3;
  score3 = score2;
  score2 = score1;
  score1 = score;

  name10 = name9;
  name9 = name8;
  name8 = name7;
  name7 = name6;
  name6 = name5;
  name5 = name4;
  name4 = name3;
  name3 = name2;
  name2 = name1;
  name1 = newname;

  ofstream fout;
  fout.open("HSL.dat");
  fout << name1 << endl;
  fout << score1 << endl;
  fout << name2 << endl;
  fout << score2 << endl;
  fout << name3 << endl;
  fout << score3 << endl;
  fout << name4 << endl;
  fout << score4 << endl;
  fout << name5 << endl;
  fout << score5 << endl;
  fout << name6 << endl;
  fout << score6 << endl;
  fout << name7 << endl;
  fout << score7 << endl;
  fout << name8 << endl;
  fout << score8 << endl;
  fout << name9 << endl;
  fout << score9 << endl;
  fout << name10 << endl;
  fout << score10 << endl;
  fout.close();
  HighScore();
}

Now it doesnt put info into the file like it should. And if the user types nothing it messes up everything.

I use Allegro with Dev-C++, If you see anything I am doing wrong plese let me know.
I am using Allegro and Dev-C++.

Shoud I use something other than

Code:

name2 = name1

Would strcpy() or a bitwise operator br better?

I really just want to get this through so I can put the tetris thing behind me.........
