Ok i finished off the program i was making. now i just got a couple problems icant work out....spent hours doing this please help me with my last few probs...

First thing is when i write the records to file, and then when i try to sort it...the display shows all the records twice instead of just the sorted records.
As you can see i managed to make the bubble sort work with the critical count but i got help on that.
I added the code for a quick sort as well,, can some show me how i can implement this into this program.
What i want is to give the user a choice to sort using bubble sort for Artist and Quicksort for Genre.

Please i will really apreciate if anyone can help me solve these two problems...

  1. fflush(stdin); Do not use that. (Nor gets.) Use this:
    int c;
    while((c = getchar()) != '\n' && c != EOF);
  2. getch() is nonstandard and you shouldn't use it; but if you must, it's in <conio.h>.
  3. scanf("%s",cdDB[i].Artist); This is a bad way to read in a string (although, admittedly, better than gets()). You should use fgets() instead.
  4. main() should return a value, like 0 (although it doesn't have to).

Ok try to compile and run the program.
When i enter a cdrecord instead of asking me to continue or finish, the program automatically asks for next cd record data.
Can u please show what i need to modify in order to make it run as i want it to.
Also take alook at the quicksort function even though i call it in the program it dont work .

Can someone show what i need to modify,,, only thing is i cant make any big changes cuz im running out of time..
