    Arrow would a class suit?

    Let's see:

    What I really want to do is to make a new file that will have the previous character string on the left side or the "token". Next I want to continue to read the same string. Next, I want to break the right side into smaller parts between white space characters and print a new line with the left side, token, right side.

    Example:


    Input file:
    ------------
    12 ? a g e



    This is my desired output:
    --------------------------------

    12 ? a
    12 ? g
    12 ? e

    Thanks

    I see that as a single method. The classes that I might see are for the two files. a class that represents format 1 and a class that represents format two. you could get the info out of one and put it in the other through some standard methods.

    just an idea.

    okay - but...

    Thanks...

    Well, I guess the next question, is do I define my method in the class that generates the output?

    Also, can I pass a string parameter to a class?


    Thanks again.

    ya, that's kinda what I'm thinking

    file1.GetData(blah);
    file2.SaveData(blah);

    file1 is an object that reads it in from the original format, file2 is one that writes it in the new format.

    extracting chars from strings

    Well, how can I traverse the string that I want to pass to the class... Should I use pointers or is there a predefined method that could handle this feat...

    Thanks

    I guess I will have to write the method, unless one exist...
