Hi have used a switch the problem

Control can't fall through from one case label (first case) to another.

I think u need a default case


switch(number)
{
case 1:
.....
break;
case 2:
.....
break;
case 3:
.....
break;
default:
break;
}

I think you can't do it with string.

According to MSDN: The expression enclosed in parentheses (after the switch statement), the "controlling expression," must be of an integral type or of a class type for which there is an unambiguous conversion to integral type.

I guess you should implement it using nested if-then-else statement and strcmp (string compare) function.

I hope this will help.

the strcmp was in VC++/C/C++. I guess you are a core C++ programmer. thanks for help. but in C# it accepts strings also.
