Hello everyone, this is my very first post in this webpage so here we go.
I've got this problem with my hw assignment, it's almost finished except for one part.
The hw is as follows:
- Create an address book, creating 4 text files in the computer memory. Each text file belong to each of the categories: Classmates Contacts, Colleagues, Friends and Family.
-The address book must be able to:
*add new contact [done]
*delete contact [done]
*edit contact [where the problem is...]
*show contacts [done]
*search contacts [done]
*sort contact[done]
The problem is in editing a contact. When i run my program and input a name to check if the contact exists to be edited, no matter if i input a name that matched with those of my contacts, it shows as if it doesn't match.
if someone can help me...:S
here is my code, kinda long...

the problem is in this part, in case u can't find it in the code above

the problem is in this part, in case u can't find it in the code above

So are the preceding 1500 lines relevant or not?

Well, it is somehow relevant, as the EditContact class in inherited from the Contact class above...u can copy those 1500 lines in a cpp file and run it, that way it will be easier i think
