Can I get my output in my program to be sent to another program like Wordpad or Microsoft word?
Can I send the output to Word?

Ancient Dragon 5,243 Yes, but its more complex than you can handle right now. Just concentrate on writing the output to a simple text file.

I pretty much got everything figured out...
the last thing i need is to print the output.
by either printing it through the program (which i hear is impossible)
or by sending it to wordpad or microsoft word.

No its not -- there are lots of programs that do it. Why not just write it to a file then use word if you want to print it ?

What do you mean "write it to a file"?
I have to have this ready for the league in like... 6 hours, lol.
So basically all I need is to do the "index" for numbering it (which i dont know how to do) and then print it.More importantly is the numbering.
I appreciate all the help, by the way.

iamthwee 1,547 There are a few options I see.
1) Write the output to notepad (not wordpad or MSword!) then just choose print from the menu.
2) Actually get the program to print it straight from the printer.
Which one?

Like use fstream object and output the text to a file. Not all that difficult. If you don't know how to do that then I don't think you can complete the project on time.

i would prefer to get it to print straight from the program to the printer.

Ancient Dragon 5,243 Just open a stream to "LPT1:" and send the data to it. Try this program and see if it comes out on your printer.
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
fstream out("LPT1:");
if( out.is_open())
{
out << "Hello World\n";
}
return 0;
}[edit]The program hangs up on the return statement on my computer -- running Vista Home Premium.[/edit]

annagraphicart i did that, but it didn't do anything..
plus it will be set up using the bowling alley's computer/printer.
so its pointless to set it up through my personal one.
can i just get it sent to notepad or something?
I heard its possible.

Ancient Dragon 5,243 yes, as I said before just output the data to a text file then open it with Notepad and print it manually. Simple solution and your program desn't have to worry about printers. Same as my previous example but instead of the file name "LPT1:" use some other name such as "myfile.txt".
