my input file looks like this:

112;12
130;30
156;56

the first colum refers to keys, and the other one refers to quantity. im writin a program to search for the key and print out the quantity using hash algorithm. i used structure. so it looks like, lets say,

input.getline(structure.key, sizeof(structure.key),';');
input.getline(structure.quantity, sizeof(structure.quantity));

the problem is its just reading only the first line. and it doesnt read the rest lines at all. wat m i doing wrong???

the rest is the program if u wanna read, its too long.. sorry

//#include <fstream.h>
#include <iomanip>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string>
