Hi Kirk and all, I guess I should have written out c plus plus instead of using the plus sign, sorry about that. Attached is a very short program that shows what I am trying to do. I want the pressenter() function to be able to be sure that there is nothing on the input stream before it prints the "press enter to continue" message. Is there a way to see how many characters are on the input stream so I know what number of characters to pass to cin.ignore()?
