Here is my code so far, i can not get option 2 and 4 to execute properly. When I tell it to delete record it does not seem to do anything and when i tell it to display records it just prints out 0s nonstop:

//Employee Data Base

// ATTENTION: As of right now i cant seem to get option 2 delete record and i can not get option 4 display records to work // Options 1, 3, 5, 6 all seem to be working fine

#include #include #include #include #include using namespace std;

public: void getdata(int i) { //read data from employee id = i + 1; cout << "First Name: "; cin >> firstName; cout << "Last Name: "; cin >> lastName; do { cout << "social Security Number (Enter in this format xxx-xxx-xxxx): "; cin >> socialSecurityNumber; // Enter in format xxx-xxx-xxxx } while (strchr(socialSecurityNumber, '-') == NULL);
