Thread: Reading a spaced file

I have a text file with a paragraph of text in it, but in between each letter is a space. I'm trying to get a program to read into the file and write a file with no spaces, but I'm not managing. I've tried something like this so far ( this isn't the actual code, I get frustrated and deleted it :P )

Code:

int main()
{

ifstream fin;
ofstream fout;

fin.open("myfile.txt", ios::binary | ios::in);
if(!fin)
{
cout << "File not opened.";
Sleep(2000);
return 0;
}

char data;

while(fin.get(data))
{
cout << data;
}

/* Up to here, my program works, and I get everything printed to screen. */

Then I come across a problem. "data" wasn't declared as an array, so I can't use this :

Code:

for(int x = 0; x < strlen(data); x++)
{
cout << data[x]
x++;
}

Also, I can't do this :

Code:

char content[strlen(data)] = data;
for(int x = 0; x < strlen(data); x++)
{
cout << content[x]
x++;
}

Does anyone see how I could solve this ?
Thanks.
