I was tring to write some data in a file from the singly linked list and also read the data from that and append it to singly linked list in the begening of the program.For this i had written two seperate functions .
1. writetofile
2. readfromfile

for appending the data in SLL i had used append function

Everything is working well and good .But i m facing a problem :cry: when i write vast amount of data in the file.Whwn there is almost 500 records , and now i want to write some data its appending in SLL but its failed to be written in the file and as a rsult all the data is lost . I want to know wats the problem ?? Please help me . I m doing something wrong ??

Ps. I know that entering almost 500 records is not a joke to test this program.So i m attaching the file data.txt which i had used to store the records. plzz save this file in c:\cheque :rolleyes:

Everything is working well and good

I can't even get it to compile.

long float amount;

Using types before they are defined. And I don't have graphics.h. (That's the joy of nonstandard code -- fewer folks who can help.)

U can delete the line #include<graphics.h> and for the time being u can use float instead of long float
