I need some help in 3 files of code from a check-out program that I am playing with. I think I forgot to declare some variable, and some weird syntax with semicolon. Text file contain the info:

You have a fair bit of code there... could you use [ CODE ] tags to get it highlighted for us?

I edit the post

That was helpful! I noticed a few things. One, on line 28 I do not think you need to open the file as I think the constructor will have done that for you. The main problem though I believe lies in line 100. You have this inFile and are intending to read from it, but it appears that you accidentally read from cin instead. Change cin>>plu.... to inFile>>plu...

I made some changes in 3 files but still 2 errors left. Here check the revised codes:

I am doing this in Microsoft Visual Studio 2008, and the debugging errors are:
store1.cpp(76) : error C2039: 'changeStock' : is not a member of 'Product'
product.h(8) : see declaration of 'Product'

The 'changeStock' is the remaining stock after the purchases

First of all you made neither of the changes I suggested, so even after you stop getting errors your code will not work. Second note that you named the function getChangeStock, not changeStock so that is one of your errors.

:sad: I made mistake like that a lot. I fixed it, and it compiled successfully. However, when I enter the PLU code like 4101 like in the text file, the menu showed again :(.

I changed the line 100 according to you; line 28 I need to update a new inventory file after the purchases; I think I still have problem with the checkout() function.

I don't think you ever made a PLUCode variable. I could be wrong, but it's definition is definately not easy to find.

I found the dummy me at line 56 and 57; they are kind out getting in the way of the rest of the loop.

Thanks you for your time and help Lab. Appriciated:twisted:
