skipping a code of line

Are you using MSVC 6? If you are, there''s a known bug in basic_istream::getline() with MSVC 6. Try applying the fix at this page and see if it solves your problem.

Thanks, but I've applied that fix many times, and I just did it again, but nothings changed. It still skips the cin.getline line.
Any other suggestions?
edit: Ok, on the fixes page, it says to replace snextc with sbumpc but since I have VC++ 6.0, I changed to to stossc. Do I change just that one line, or should I change all the snextc's to stossc?
also, in my file, there is a line like this:
else if (_Tr::eq((_E)_C, _D))
but the fixes page has the line like this:
else if (_Tr::eq(_C, _D))
should I change it or leave it?

Umm...this fix is specifically for VC++ 6.0... so you should probably replace snextc with sbumpc, not stossc. Uhh...wow, what a concept, doing something other than what it tells you to and wondering why it doesnt work.

....its amazing how people can be rude to each other (subtly or not) when they don't see each other face to face.
Anyways, if you see on the fixes page it says:
Note that V6.0 replaces snextc with stossc. It is an adequate fix, but you can also apply the above patch safely.
I know it doesnt say replace with stossc, but when I checked it, it was snextc instaed of stossc.

Since you seem to like to make things more complicated than they are, I suggest replacing the dinkumware implementation of STL with STLport. Problem solved.
