I can't seem to get this code to displayEmployeeInfo if the user enters a negative number for ID. Also I can't seem to get a total of all wages to display. Any helpful hints would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

#include <iostream> 
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
#include <string>
int getEmployeeData (string[], char[], const int, double[]);
float calculateGrossPay(string[], char[], double[], int, double[]);
void displayEmployeeInfo (string[], char[], int, double[], double[]);
bool tryAgain();
bool isValidStatus(char);
bool isValidID (string);


int main()
{
	const int numEmp = 4;
	string ID[numEmp];
	char pyrllSt[numEmp];
	double grossPay[numEmp];
	double netPay[numEmp];
	double totalPayroll = 0;
	getEmployeeData(ID, pyrllSt, numEmp, grossPay);
	calculateGrossPay(ID, pyrllSt, grossPay, numEmp, netPay);

	return 0;	
}


int getEmployeeData (string ID[], char pyrllSt[], const int numEmp, double grossPay[])
{
		for (int index = 0; index < numEmp; index++)
		{	
			do

				cout << "Enter employee ID:" << endl;

				cin >> pyrllSt[index];

			if (pyrllSt[index] == 's' || pyrllSt[index] == 'S')

Your IsValidID() routine checks the first entered charactor length() times (perhaps you intended to say ID[index] rather than ID[0]) for '0' through '9' (you can compare against '0' rather than 48, by the way).

So a negative entry would seem to cause it to fail. Is that not what's happening?
