I have attached a program (unfinished)
I have a problem in the second case that I can't fix.
I tried everything I know.
I think the problem is it can't receive the right info even thoug it should.
can any one help me please?

Don't you mean 'date'? There is no 'Date' in your program.
Also, NEVER use gets. Use fgets instead.

You use 'choice' uninitialized here. This is bad. Initialize it first.
Other than that, I got tired of reading. Post what your program isn't doing correctly and then perhaps you'll get a bit more help.
[edit]
Your date check can REALLY be simplified.
[/edit]Code:int dpm[12] = {31,28,31,30,31,30,31,30,31,31,30,31}; if( day < 1 || day > dpm[month-1] ) { printf("Enter a valid day, between 1 and %d.\n", dpm[month-1]); }
Naturally you will want to modify slightly for leap year.

Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
Also,
Do us a favor - cause we love you so much -
void main()
->
Code:int main() { .... return 0; }
I know ,I know int main is better but we can't use in this course.Also,

void main()

Code:int main() { .... return 0; }
so I'll have to keep void main. sorry.
quzah,
thanks for the MUCH better date check.

this is the part I think gets me into an endless loop but I don't know why.
Code:printf("enter item's id, max 999999999\n"); fgets(item_id,10,stdin); if(sscanf(item_id,"%d",&itemid)==1) { ...............
I still don't know why that way is not working
but I fixed it with an internal function instead.
I would still like to know why this isn't working.

thanks.
- 999999999 is way bigger than an int. Don't expect you program to work with numbers that big (unless you change the data types).Code:printf("enter item's id, max 999999999\n"); fgets(item_id,10,stdin); if(sscanf(item_id,"%d",&itemid)==1) {
When all else fails, read the instructions.
If you're posting code, use code tags: [code] /* insert code here */ [/code]
