accessing array of structs values
Ok, after much help from everyone at this site, I've run upon my newest problem using an array of structs.
I successfully get the data loaded into the array, map it correctly and can call the information from the struct loaded in the subscript of the array.
However, when I try to use the data I store in a very robust array of struct, I appear to just get memory addresses, not the values. I've tried about 30 combinations of calls to get the results, which I know are there, because as a process the data and its being loaded into the structs I see it on screen. Am I not getting to the proper location of the array or am I just calling a memory address not the value. I've attached my code, thanks as always for looking.
Code:
#include <fstream.h>
#include "string.h"
//define struct
struct partnerInfo
{
char partnerId [11];
int casecount;
int wavenumber;
int starttime;
int endtime;
int station;
char date [11];
};
int main ()
{
//list variables for input record type
char recType;
char date [11];
float hours;
float minutes;
float seconds;
char partnerName [30];
char partnerId [11];
int stationId;
char eventType [30];
int waveNumber;
char tableName [11];
char tableId [11];
int count = 0;
int count2 =0;
int index;
int totalTime = 0;
int MasterCount = 0;
int mcCount3 = 0;
//open file for input and grab first record
/* ifstream fin;
fin.open("C:\\data\\MoLic2.txt");
if (fin.fail())
{
cout <<"file open failed!"<<endl;

fin.ignore();
fin.getline(eventType, 30);
//declare array of strings for station to partnerId reference
char stations [20] [11];
//determine recType and populate array if necessary
if (recType == 'P')
{
strcpy( stations[stationId], partnerId ); //set element equal to partnerId
