    minor error need help on

    Code:
    #include <ctype.h>
    #include <iomanip.h>
    #include <fstream.h>
    #include <string>
    #include <iostream.h>
    
    void printdata(char, double);
    
    int main (void)
    {
    int freqcount[26] = {0};  //array to hold letter values
    int totalcount = 0;       //initializes total count to value '0'
    string InFileName;
    cout <<"\nEnter name of file to process: "; //prompts user for input filename
    getline(cin,InFileName); 
    ifstream inStream;inStream.open(InFileName.data());
    if (!inStream.is_open())
    {
      cerr << "\nError opening " << InFileName << endl;
      return -1;
    }
    double percent;                  
    double i;
    char Ch;
    inStream >> Ch;
    while (!inStream.eof())
    {
     Ch = toupper(Ch);
     if ((Ch <= 'Z') && (Ch >= 'A'))
      { 
       totalcount++;
       freqcount[Ch - 65]++;
      }
     inStream >> Ch;
    }
    cout << "\n" << "Char       %" << endl
    << "===================================================================\n";
    for (int k=0; k<=25; k++)
     {
      percent = freqcount[k]*100.0/totalcount;
      printdata(char(k+65), percent);
     }
    cout << endl << endl << "Number of letters = " << totalcount << endl;
    }
    
    void printdata(char Ch, double percent)
    {
    double i;
    cout << "  "<< Ch << "       " << setiosflags(ios::showpoint | ios::fixed
           | ios::right) << setprecision(1) << setw(5) << percent;
    for (i=2*percent; i>0.5; i--) cout << '*'; cout << endl;
    }
    and my errors are as follows

    test.c: In function 'int main()':
    test.c:13: error: 'string' undeclared (first use this function)
    test.c:13: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.)
    test.c:13: error: parse error before ';' token
    test.c:15: error: 'InFileName' undeclared (first use this function)

    any help would be appreciated.

    might be beaten to this but here goes...

    Code:
    #include <ctype.h>
    #include <iomanip>
    #include <fstream>
    #include <string>
    #include <iostream>
    
    using namespace std;

    Code:
    #include <ctype.h>
    Should be:
    Code:
    #include <cctype>

    You might need a
    Code:
    cin.get()
    as well near the end of main to pause the program.
