help me with my contact book!

Hey,
I'm currently working on an address book using classes that will
take and email address and a name and save it in a certain format in a
text file. Could you help me! I'm sure my code should be working, but
the compiler keeps giving me error messages. I'm not an idiot, so
please don't dumb down your reply! Thanks!

Can you post some code? It is difficult to figure out exactly why the
compiler is complaining without seeing the code. It would also be
helpful if you post the error messages you are getting. See:

There's no reason to take such crap from your compiler. Smack it a good
one, and tell it if it doesn't straighten up, you'll use Delphi! :-)

Seriously, how about some indication of what the problems/errors are, and
the code that generates them???

We can't help if we don't know the format.

What is the format for the name?
Is the name fixed length or variable?
Is it one string or many (i.e. first, middle, last, etc.)?

What are the classes?

Could you help me! Not today, as my crystal ball is in the shop. I'll have it back
tomorrow, so I can read your mind and gather the information that
you didn't post.

Otherwise, post the code that you are having problems with. Please
indicate expected behavior versus actual behavior.

I'm sure my code should be working, but
the compiler keeps giving me error messages. I'm not an idiot, so
please don't dumb down your reply! Thanks! A wiser person posts some code.
