I think you want:
string fname;cout << ""Friends Name: ";cin >> fname;friends.pushback(fname);

errr... are you trying to call poop(diaper) from somewhere? What's your exact error?
Also, unless it's highly important that you copy all the values of your vector, I recommend you pass by reference:
void poop( const vector<string> &diaper ) {}
Much faster, since you're really just passing a memory reference.

Im trying to use the values of diaper in another function.
Ex:
Ex:
void trash(){ vector<string> diaper; diaper.push_back("Smelly"); diaper.push_back("WOW!");}void poop( vector<string> diaper ){ for(int i = 0; i < 2; i++) { cout << diaper << endl; } }
Again, it would help if you told what the error was. I coded up a quick test app. for your functions and have no problem. I have a main function actually calling one of the functions, but other than that there's not a whole lot majorly different. You could change this to use iterators on the vector as well, but that's not the main point of this exercise anyway I imagine.
#include <vector>#include <string>#include <iostream>void trash();void poop(const std::vector<std::string> &diaper);int main ( void ){ trash(); return 0;}void trash(){ std::vector<std::string> diaper; diaper.push_back("Smelly"); diaper.push_back("WOW!"); poop(diaper);}void poop(const std::vector<std::string> &diaper ){ for(int i = 0; i < 2; i++) { std::cout << diaper << std::endl; } }

Hey man, thanx for the help. I got it to work [smile]
Also note that this works:
You can't alter a varaible outside of a function, but you can intialize one. Doing so makes it a global and lets any function(on this file) access it.
#include <iostream> //for the basic commands(string, cout, etc...)#include <vector> //For the vectorsusing namespace std; //Because I'm lazy and don't want to type 'std::' before strings/cout/endl/cin/etc...vector<string> diaper; //Declaring 'diaper' outside of any functions make it a global variable(as oposed to a//local one) This allows any function to have access to it.void trash(), poop(); //Pre-initialization of the functions 'trash' and 'poop'int main(){ trash(); //Use function 'trash' poop(); //Use function 'poop' cin.get(); //Wait for input before exiting return 0; //exit}void trash() //The function itself{ diaper.push_back("Smelly"); diaper.push_back("WOW!");}void poop()//The other function{ for(int i = 0; i < 2; i++) { cout << diaper << endl; } }You can't alter a varaible outside of a function, but you can intialize one. Doing so makes it a global and lets any function(on this file) access it.

I'm curious now, what was wrong with it? :D
It wasn't global I think.
caffeineaddict dodged making it global by reading strait from it's address.
