Thread: create an array

Hi! I am new at this and my homework this week is to create an address book , using a defined structure and an array (so many enteries can be stored.) So, I have started this, but am stuck, do you have any idea's. Like I said, I am very new at all this and would just like suggestions not answers! Thanks




#include <iostream.h>


struct AddressBook
{
char Name[15];
char Address[15];
char City[25];
int age;
int zip;
int phonenumber;

};




void main()

{

cout<<"Enter the information into the address book!";

cout<< Enter the Name: ";
cin.getline (Name, 20);

cout<<"Enter the address: ";
cin.getline (Address, 20);

cout<<"Enter the City and abbreviated state: ";
cin.getline (City,30);

cout<<"Enter the Zip code: ";
cin.getline (Zip, 6);

cout<<"Enter the phone number including area code (please do not add a hypen or space): ";
cin.getline (Phonenumber, 10);

cout<<"Enter the age of this person: ";
cin.getline (Age,3);


)

first, let me say this otherwise others (especially prelude) will go ballistic:
don't use void main(). ever. ever. never ever ever use void main.
use int main() instead.


you're off to a good start. create an array of structs. create a loop to keep receiving answers until the user of the program wants to quit.

okay, so I changed that to int main(), but how do I start the array????


And when I compile it is telling me.... some of these....
'Enter' : undeclared identifier
: error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'the'
: error C2065: 'the' : undeclared identifier
: error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'Name'
'Age' : undeclared identifier


I don't understand why it is saying it is undeclared....didn't I declare it by using
char Name...etc.????
