Need help!

I am trying to close the input and output files in my functions after im done with them, but i am getting errors when i pass the file name in. I cannot figure out why. Also in my menu options, when i press 1. It does not call my wkly_pay_roll function, but instead it clears the screen.

you cannot pass an ifstream object by value, you need to pass it by reference.
