Hello,
This is my first post here and I hope someone can help me.
I'm new to C++ and really know very little, however I am a fast learner.
Here's what I'm trying to do.
Write an app. that will copy 2 files and rename them.
Then the the app will start an exe.(the exe cannot be run in dos mode!)
Then the app will start a timer that will run the exe for 30 to 60 minutes.]
Then the app will shut down the exe.
I do not have any code started for this.
I trully do not know where to start.
I do have visual C++ 6.0.
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Select New from the File menu. Click the Projects tab. Select Win32 Console Application.

Use rename().

Not sure what you mean an inside joke??
I asked a question and got answers.
Nothing more than that!
Although some of the answers made me feel like they should of started with hey dumbass...
Anyway no big deal. I'll found a way to this, if not here then somewhere else.
Thanks!

Sorry Dude. I didn't read it right. Everybody has been super helpful
to me here and I'm kinda a space cadet.
Those links were extremely helpful to me and hopefully the will be to
you.
Everybody, sorry for the confusion. Been a ruff week.

No jokes inferred or implied. I was just indicating that since you replied to me rather than Cougarxr7, he might not benefit from your suggestion.

When I debug a C++ program with break points to pring some values I got: data[i] - -1.#IND0
what "-1.#IND0" mean ?
Thanks

It means Indefinite, or quiet Not a Number (NaN).

You mean your code works in debug mode and does no in release mode?
If yes, then check with array size and index used.
Typically such errors come in release mode if the memory allocated is not enough.
In debug mode due to extra buffer the problem dont seem to occur.
Check out the size of calibrate_list and max cntr value used.

TY ArtiGujare. I'll double check those items. I googled the error and
found a posting that directed me to a BB. It indicated that there may be
a problem with my machine. Consequently I compiled, jump drived the .exe
to another machine and ran it. No error...(hmmmm) Gonna test a couple more
machines....
Does running in VS - "start w/o debug" execute the app differently than if
you just ran the .exe??????

Not my machine. Generated the error on 3 out of 4 machines.

Thanx so much!!!!! You narrowed it down to a couple of things and as
a result, I tracked it down. Sometimes it just takes someone saying,
"More than likely the error is this. Double/Triple check it."
I had an infinite while loop going. For some reason, cntr was staying
at 1.

Compile your debug buid with /GZ. It may show the error then.
