Narue, thanks for all your help with this program! I really appreciate it. I have one last problem. In the function tryAgain, if user presses 'q' or 'Q'; the program terminates. No problem there, but if they hit anyother key; the program should allow them to re-enter pyrllSt (payroll status again). I don't believe I am getting into the second part of the if statement in the tryAgain function... Any suggestions? By the way the double suggestion works perfectly. You are one smart cookie. Thank you!
