Sorry, we don't give homework help without proof of effort on your part, and we don't give away homework answers. If you want to cheat, go elsewhere.

you can use dos.h header file and run the dos search command ,,,

You may use function system("dos command name");
..........:ooh:

commented: that would be a stupid solution, except for the fact that it won't work. so therefore it's just "stupid" -2
