C++ text file into array + help

I'm doing a program where i need to put a text file that has a list of dates that look like this.

Text file:

10 20 2011
12 5 2009
7 16 2008
etc..

and i need to put that into a array.

I can put the information in the array but it shows up like

10
20
2011 etc.

is there a way i can put the whole month/day/year on one line and count for 1 as a whole in an array?

thanks in advance
Yes. create a struct that holds three integers and create array of the struct then.
Store each number from the date in the respective member of the struct.
I have this and not really good when it comes to structures since im new to it.
it compiles and the output is at the bottom. Help would be deeply appreciated.
