The error was that if supposed to create a Record.txt and place the employee details there and i found out that if a record.txt is there it will stuck in the menu where you it prompt you to insert a menu and you make your selection. When I delete the record.txt, i works as if it was perfect when you add a new entry but the data that it stored in the record.txt may caused some errors as it is as
below are the partial full program I did not include the other 2 for I think it dont have any errors

And to Narue, I didnt meant to try to mock or anything when I stated I am a female I just wanted to let others know who am I. I have my freedom to the limitation and exposure of my identity and you can skip it if you dont care. I am not trying to cause any trouble directly and indirectly and don't know stating i am a female can causes some misunderstanding but for that I apologised.
First, it's not informative at all. Second, it has useless information. We don't care if it's a simple program or not, nor do we care about your gender. A better title would be one that tells us what the problem is because you didn't say in the body of your post. :rolleyes:
