how can i update a record????

I was wondering if it is possible to display a record in a linked list, or any other structure and be able to update the record rather than delete the record an re-enter it

any help would be awesome

Well once it's in memory, you can do what you want with it

Easiest thing to do is to visualise what is going on by drawing 'before' and 'after' pictures of your data structure (eg. array), and the action (eg. add) which you want to perform.

i know what i want to do but i dont know how to do it!!!!
i wantr to display the record and then update the record as i am looking at in on the screen

Code:

---

record[i] = update( record[i] );

---

Update displays all the fields of a record, prompts for changes, then returns the updated copy when all is done. The assignment then updates your record.

Or something else?
