If you have errors, one thing you can do to help people help you is to post the errors. Probably only the first few are necessary. There tends to be a snowball effect where the first error(s) cause more down the line.

Just at a glance, the compiler doesn't encounter anything telling it what login is until well after you try to call it -- put a declaration/prototype for the function before main's definition.

Please use code tags to make it easier to read your code:

vlad from moscow (6539)
Any name that is used in a C++ program shall be declared before its usage.
For example the compiler does not know what mean login in the code below.

int main(){
login();
return 0;
}

Cpp1.exe - 79 error(s), 0 warning(s)
vlad from moscow (6539)
The error messages are clear enough. Why do you not read error messages?
Smarty (11)
It looks like most errors are just you forgetting ;


Why did you put << "" << in the first 3 lines?
1
2
3
 
cout<<""<< endl;
cout<<""<< endl;
cout<<""<< endl;


You don't need to have the "" when it's an empty line, you could just use the endl.
zeromahesh (5)
Thanks for the replies friends.. Still I cannot completely solve the issue.. Please help me further more...
Polaz (18)
@Smarty: Yeah, or he could just use this - combining those three lines.
cout << "\n\n" << endl;

@zeromahesh: There is clearly a lot you do not understand. Please examine my changes carefully; I am very new to C++, but my changes do indeed get your code to compile.

Please don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions.

Polaz thank u soooo much my friend.. It's working greatly.. I'm so happy... Thanks a lot.. I need to implement those functions also. I'll get the requirement and then let you know.. Then please help me. Thanks again... :)
zeromahesh (5)
Polaz I had a issue.. I compile and build your code on a Windows Xp machine using Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 and ran it nicely... but when I copy that .exe file to Windows 7 machine and try to run using command line it says windows incompatible thing.. So how can I compile for Windows 7 using windows Xp..
Polaz (18)
@zeromahesh: I wish I could help, but I'm not very experienced in that aspect. You DO have a compiler for your Windows 7 machine, don't you?

Try using Code::Blocks; that's what I edited your code in - and my OS is Windows 7.
