    Arrow is this statement legal??

    cin.get(obj[i].task_descrip,50,'\n');
    cin.ignore(100,'\n');

    obj is an object for a strucutre, containing the member task_descrip.

    You might want to ask your lawyer if there are any laws preventing you from using the . operator on a pointer.
    You should have no problems if you are living in a free country.
    However, your compiler will not accept it.

    She was so Blonde, she spent 20 minutes looking at the orange juice can because it said "Concentrate."

    When in doubt, read the FAQ.
    Then ask a smart question.
