    1) Don't use caps.
    2) Why don't you give the errors?

    And the bits that you do not understand of that is? To me, both errors are pretty much self-explanatory.

    Compilers can produce warnings - make the compiler programmers happy: Use them!
    Please don't PM me for help - and no, I don't do help over instant messengers.

    this might have something to do with it:

    These lines include headers that are pre-standard:
    Code:
    #include <iostream.h>
    #include<fstream.h>
    #include<iomanip.h>
    They should be respectively replaced by:
    Code:
    #include <iostream>
    #include <fstream>
    #include <iomanip>
    These lines include headers that are non-standard:
    Code:
    #include<conio.h>
    #include<dos.h>
    Since you are not using any such non-standard functionality (at least from what I see) they should be removed.

    These lines include standard C headers:
    Code:
    #include<stdio.h>
    #include<string.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    #include <limits.h>
    It would be better to replace them with the corresponding C++ standard headers:
    Code:
    #include <cstdio>
    #include <cstring>
    #include <cstdlib>
    #include <climits>
    Incidentally, I noticed the use of gets(), which is unsafe. I would rather avoid mixing C-style and C++-style I/O.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.
