Sounds like you have a good teacher. He's trying to make you develop your problem solving skills. What have you come up with so far?
In other words, don't give up and ask Tek-Tips until you've made an honest effort yourself. That's the only way you'll really learn.

I would start by writing the basic program first without the file i/o portion of the problem using static data. Once you have that part working, then work on getting the file i/o portion to work. I will give you a hint: You will probally want to look at using a struct for your data.
