Using .txt files

I understand how to open text files, and how to close them. But not use the bit inside so to speak.

Can any one give me a quick run down on how to edit code inside, and use an if statement to check if a string is equal to any of the data within the text file.

You need to read some tutorials. I would start here.

I'm not 100% sure if I remember this correctly... but here goes:

Code:

---

fstream FileIn;
FileIn("Text.txt");  //Something like that
char szLine[MAX_PATH];
for (int i = 0; !FileIn.eof(); i++)
{
    FileIn.getline(szLine, MAX_PATH);
    /*I think I forgot something in here.  This is now you get a line of text from a text file*/
    if (strcmp(szLine, "Compare Text To") == 0)
          MessageBox(NULL, "Line Matches", "MessageBox", MB_OK);
}
