I think this is what you mean, please feel free to correct me

Reading Files

///Read a text file and output contets to console.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <stdlib.h>//Allows access to 'System' 'FuNti0N's'
#include <cstdlib>//Allows access to special 'FuNti0N's'

using namespace std;

int main()

{
 
   char The_FileName[50];//Declares 'The-File_Name' as data type 'char' 
   ifstream ReadFile;//
   cin.getline(The_FileName, 50);//
   ReadFile.open(The_FileName);//

   if (!ReadFile.is_open())//Check if file is allready open,
   {
      return 0;
   }

   char Contents_Of_Text_File[100];
   ReadFile >> Contents_Of_Text_File;

   while(ReadFile.good())
   {

      cout << Contents_Of_Text_File << " ";
      ReadFile >> Contents_Of_Text_File;

   }

system("PAUSE");
return 0;


}

Writing to files

///Will create a new Text Document, If no such file exists.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>//File Stream Header, allows access to required funtions.
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

int main()

{
   string Input;

  
   getline(cin, Input);

   ofstream MyNewFile;//Declare Name of file(Variable)
   MyNewFile.open("MyNewFile.txt");//Create New file, or idit existing file.
   MyNewFile << Input;//Write to file, note will overwrite.
   MyNewFile.close();//Close file; Stop Memory Leaks.

   /*Or You Could do.....
   ofstream MyNewFile("MyNewFile.txt", ios_base::app);//This will only ammend the file,
   will only write to the end of file.
   */

   system("PAUSE");//Pause console.

return 0;


}

Again i apologise if i have misunderstood....
