[Evil_Cowgod]

Well Im new to C++ and I am using "bloodShed Dev C++" as my compiler. I would like to write to a text file "C:\anser.txt" but the I cant get the code I was given to work

Could someone please tell me how to write to a text file? )

#include <iostream.h>

int main()
{
ofstream outfilie("answer.txt", ios::trunc);
if(outfile.fail())
{
cout<<"File Error"<<endl;
exit(1);
}
