birthdate is an object. What is exactly do you want to print? to access to the day variable, you simply do
company[i].birthdate.day
(and so on for month and year.) but you can't print an object. The object represents an entity which has a variety of elements.

You already have a thread discussing this problem. Please don't spam the forums with multiple threads for the same topic.

Thanks. I didn't know I had to output each member it currently works thank you!

but you can't print an object.

This is not true. You can overload the << operator for type Date, to do exactly that.

As MikeyBoy said, please don't make another post for the same issue.

If you need to draw attention to a question you've asked, it's OK to bump the thread, within reasonable limits. Better to do that than to clutter the forum with multiple threads, which splits the discussion on a topic over several threads and wastes people's time answering questions which have been answered in other threads.

Sorry I just thought if I put my other problem into a different thread then I would possibly get someone else that could possibly answer it. I didn't mean to break a forum rule lol. I was just trying to think smart. I'm new to this whole forum thing.

No worries - just wanted to let you know the best way to go about things in the future.
