Thread: Delete node!!!!!

Hello again guys. I created a employees data record previously using arrays. This time I'm suppossed to do the same thing using linked-lists!!! My program is working almost perfect (add,edit,display etc.) but I am completely stuck in deleting a record (node). I am using single link lists. I have very little idea about implementing linked-lists. Can anyone please help me on this? I want to keep (please don't ask why!!!) my function declaration as it is [ i.e. void Delete_Record(void) ]. Below is my code :

Code:

void Delete_Record(void)
{
  struct record *current,*temp2;
  char id[3];
  int c;
  clrscr();
  textcolor(YELLOW);
  gotoxy (20,2);
  cprintf ("Wages/Tax/Insurance Employees Records Calculator ");
  gotoxy(5,5);
  textcolor(WHITE);
  cprintf("Delete a record :");
  gotoxy(5,6);
  cprintf("_________________");
  textcolor(WHITE);
  gotoxy( 8,13);
  current=head;
  cprintf("Enter Employee ID to delete [0-99] : ");
  gets(id);
  while (current!=NULL)
  {
    c=(strcmp(id,current->id));
    if (c==0)
    {

      prev->next=current->next;
      temp2=current;  
      free(temp2);
       break;
    } // end if
    if (current==NULL)
    {
      gotoxy(20,18);
      textcolor(LIGHTRED);
      cprintf("No such record ! Press any key to continue...");
      getche();
    } // end if
    current=current->next;
  } // end while

  } // end Delete_Record();

Thanks...

Hell...o...o..Someone...Anyone...Please

I know its a common question. But I couldn't find the answer I am looking for. One thing about this one is I am not passing any parametres to the delete function. And since I am not good with linked lists, I am not sure how to use different other solutions already posted. So.....

Thank you very much...
