why skipping?

Code:

---

cout<<"Enter A Menu Option: ";
        cin>>menuOpt;
        while(menuOpt>4 || menuOpt<1)
        {
                cout<<"Please Enter A Valid Input (1-4): ";
                cin>>menuOpt;
        }

        switch(menuOpt)  //Main game switch statement
        {
        case 1:
                        cout<<"1 chosen"<<endl;
                break;
        case 2:
                        cout<<"2 chosen"<<endl;
                break;
        case 3:
                cout<<"3 Chosen"<<endl;
                ShowAbout();
                break;
        case 4:
                cout<<"GoodBye!"<<endl;
                return 0;
                break;
        }

why does it skip over case 1 - 3? only case 4 works....why?:confused:

looks ok to me

seems ok to me too... dropped it into my vc++ as a console app with some necessary syntax... and it worked...

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main(void)
{

int menuOpt;

cout<<"Enter A Menu Option: ";
cin>>menuOpt;
while(menuOpt>4 || menuOpt<1)
{
cout<<"Please Enter A Valid Input (1-4): ";
cin>>menuOpt;
}

switch(menuOpt) //Main game switch statement
{
case 1:
cout<<"1 chosen"<<endl;
break;
case 2:
cout<<"2 chosen"<<endl;
break;
case 3:
cout<<"3 Chosen"<<endl;
break;
case 4:
cout<<"GoodBye!"<<endl;
return 0;
break;
}


}

:mad: my VC++ gets very picky sometimes thanks :)

I've restarted VC++ and deleted the original exe so it could fully recompile it...still doesn't work :(

attached file uses apstring.h and .cpp

it apears only to be linking....how can I fix it so it compiles also :confused:

If it is linking, it means it is compiled alright first.

I am also find your code is fine, perhaps it is a linker error?

I fixed it

it wasn't compiling

it just said Visual C++------Project Whatever-----------
Linking.......
0 Error(s) 0 Warning(s)

Works fine on my computer.
