i tried to read integer values from a file but it didnt work.
fscanf could only read strings.. why?
or am i not doing sumfin ryt??
here's my code:
int a=0;
FILE *p;
p = fopen("Customer_Records.txt", "r");
while(x==a);
{
fscanf(p, " %[^\n]", profile[a].name);
printf("\n %s", profile[a].name);
fscanf(p, " %[^\n]", profile[a].phone);
printf("\n %s", profile[a].phone);
fscanf(p, " %[^\n]", profile[a].email);
printf("\n %s", profile[a].email);
fscanf(p, " %d %d %d", &profile[a].entry.day, &profile[a].entry.month, &profile[a].entry.year);
printf("\n %d/%d/%d", profile[a].entry.day, profile[a].entry.month, profile[a].entry.year);
fscanf(p, " %d", &profile[a].acct_no);
printf("\n %d %d", profile[a].acct_no);
++a;
}
fclose(p);
i'm trying to locate a particular customer's record with this function and it seems to print the first record no matter what account no i enter. and it can't read the correct account number on the screen. it only shows 0's for all the int values. and sometimes shows the date when i dont ask for it like i hav now in the console.
this is the output:
Account Name: Samira Ali
Phone Number: 4214920
E-mail Address: frtgfcvbnj
0/0/0
0
those values were jus trial values i entered and this is what's in the file(they'r all trial values):
Account Name: Samira Ali
