since this is an ordered list and it is searching where to place the new item in the list so it is in order, do i need another while loop to check for the duplicates, i know you need to go through the whole list and compare each item by moving another pointer along, i'm just not sure where in the insertNode where to code it. it uses the linkedlist.h file which i'll sent as well. I appreciate your help, thanks one again.
