I have written a program involving creating a bank account for customers. However when I "deposit" money from the account, it will update, but it will add that updated account and keep the old one, when it should not be there as seen below:
First Name: her
Middle Name: m.
Last Name: an
Account Number: 1
Balance: $5600.00
First Name: her
Middle Name: m.
Last Name: an
Account Number: 1
Balance: $11600.00
I believe it deals with my 'fopen' in the beginning of my code prior to my switch statement. If i change the "ab+" to anything besides that, my 'accounts' do not get saved. And are erased when I run the executable again.
FILE *aPtr;
aPtr = fopen( "accounts.dat", "ab+");
if ( aPtr == NULL ) {
printf ( "File could not be opened" );
exit(1);
}
fseek( aPtr, 0, SEEK_SET ); /* Moving pointer to start of file*/
while ( fread(accounts + i, sizeof(data), 1, aPtr) )
i++;
n = i; /* Num. of records in file */
The code for when I 'deposit' is provided below, I believe the reason for the copying of data may have something to do with how I am using 'fwrite' and where it is saving. But i can not seem to figure out what the issue would be.
Any help in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
