I have a project, it's kind of uh, due tomorrow. Anyways, i did most of it, i just havent figured out how to save the records to a text file and print one record/all records.
The project file, forms, and DB --> http://sp0rk-tech.net/dbProject.rar

I need to:
- Print single Record
- Print All records
- Save all records to text file:
Record1
-------
Record2
-------
etc...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

If you already have done the insert, retrieve, modify, and remove functionality than printing this should be fairly trivial.

To print single record in pseudo c++ code (sorry, havent looked at what language you are coding in:

code:

---

fstream FILE;
FILE.open(filename, ios: :out); 
Class.GetRecord(pos, &record);
Print FILE record->name;
Print FILE record->item1;
Print FILE record->item2;

---

FILE.close();
to print all records int he same pseudo code:

code:

---

fstream FILE;
FILE.open(filename, ios: :out);
while(pos <= Class.Length()) {
  Class.GetRecord(pos, &record);
  Print FILE record->name;
  Print FILE record->item1;
  Print FILE record->item2;
  ++pos;
}
FILE.close();

---

Ok, thats was for saving/printing to a file.

Are you simply looking for a tutorial on file handling?

edit: damn smileys
