Hello,
I am trying to open a file that the user requests. I have figured out how to open a file that is hardcoded into the program, however like I said I can not seem to get it to work when I want it to open a file that the user requests through something like a "cin" statement.

I have searched the internet for the answer for quite a while now and heeded no good results. I have found multiply different methods but none worked.

EDIT: I am working with a Win32 console application

Thank you, in advance.
