I posted last night with this question and I didn't include the coding (DUH). I am getting the error " error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '{'
1>c:\documents and settings\user\desktop\c++ programming\midterm2invoice\midterm2invoice\midterm2_invoice.cpp(68) : error C3861: 'While': identifier not found"

Here is the code, everything works until it gets to the While stmt. I've matched up all the braces, I'm stumped I was working on this all day and all night. I know it must be something small I just need another pair of eyes to look at the code.

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

  // declare constants
	double TECH_DISC = .05;
	double SCIENCE_DISC = .04;
	double HISTORY_DISC = .03;
	double lIT_DIC = .05;
	double RELIGION_DISC = .05;
	double STATE_TAX = .06;

int main()
{
        //Declare and initialize variables  
	ifstream infile;
    int CustomerNumber;
	
    char SubjectCode;
//	char Title;
	double Price;
	int Quantity; 
	double SubTotalT;
	double SubTotalS;
	double SubTotalM;
	double SubTotalH;
	double SubTotalL;
	double SubTotalR;
	double TotalofInvoice;
	double AmtofDisc;
	
	string FirstName;
	string LastName;
    string Title;
	
    infile.open("mid-term.txt");                   

    if (!infile)                                   
	{
        cout << "Cannot open the input file." << endl;
        cout << "Program terminates!!!" << endl;
        return 1;
    }
	cout << fixed << showpoint << setprecision(2);

	infile >> CustomerNumber >> FirstName >> LastName;

	cout << "-------------------------------------------------------------------" << endl;
	cout << "Customer Number: " << CustomerNumber << setw(30)
		 << "Customer Name: " << FirstName << " " << LastName << endl;
	cout << "-------------------------------------------------------------------" << endl;
	cout << endl;	
	cout << "Category" << setw(10) << "Title" << setw(25) << "Price" << setw(15) << "Quantity" << setw(15) << "Discount" << endl;
	infile >> SubjectCode >> Price >> Quantity;
	getline (infile,Title); 
	cout  << setw(4) << SubjectCode << setw(24) << Title << setw(15) << Price << setw(12) << Quantity << endl;	
	cout << endl;

	While (!infile.eof())
	{
		While (SubjectCode != 'EC')
		{
			switch (SubjectCode)
			{
			case 'T':   
			   if Quantity > 5
			   {
				   AmtofDisc = (Quantity * Price) * TECH_DISC;
				   AccumTotal += Quantity * Price;
				   cout << SubjectCode << Title << Price << Quantity << AmtofDisc;
			   }
			   else
     		   {
					AmtofDisc = (Quantity * Price) * TECH_DISC;
					AccumTotal += Quantity * Price;
					cout << SubjectCode << Title << Price << Quantity;
			   }
			    break;

			} // end switch
            
		 } // end 2nd while
	} //end 1st while
	
system ("pause");
return 0;

}

Never mind just noticed that I had the while stmt Capitalized.
