I'm guessing the error is in line 80. What's the value of SingleLine, b and c when it gives you the error?

SingleLine is the line of the file from where it is reading and b & c are the postion of the characters from string which to be written in the new file

I know what they are supposed to be, I want the actual values when the error happens.
And throw in 'i' while you are at it.

I am not getting how to find out values when error happen
Can you suggest me for the same

Are you running the program within Visual Studio? If so, you can just point the cursor at them when the error occurs and it will show you the value.

If not, when the error occurs you should get a pop-up window with Abort, Retry, Cancel on it. Retry will start the debugger and again, you should be able to see the values.

If you don't get that box, then run it on a machine with Visual Studio installed.
