c++ write

This looks like the kind of homework assignment people get in their first programming class. We won''t do your homework for you.

Any decent book on C++ programming will give you the information you need to read and write files.

Look at the classes ifstream and ofstream.

Yes, you can encrypt files. However, that doesn''t necessarily mean only your program can modify it, as encryptions can be broken and keys can be stolen...

here is a simple way to do what you''re looking for, and nothing more.

note: this may or may not compile.

#include <stdio.h>
char *filename = "file.txt"
char buffer[100];
FILE *file = fopen(filename, "r");
fgets(file, buffer, 100); // read line until ''\n''
// put this in a loop to read until end-of-file.
// which it returns NULL i believe.
// then simply close the file.
fclose(file);

hope that helps.

NO, IT was not my homework!I was just trying to find some help.
I have books, i see...but books dont often describe what i need exactly(i read those chapters-at least this i have dont!).things like making file invisible for instance.Also if i am missing something, i can modify cursor position when i write in a file-but i want it to go to next line, not some random position!anyway, thanks GekkoCube!

you seem to have this idea that file HAVE lines. they don''t. you just interpret a ''\n'' character as an end-of-line marker.

Any decent c++ book should have that information.
