Question

How can I find out the currently logged on user then create a text file on the desktop of that user? I have been researching for hours, trying different code and I am still unable to do this.

Thanks!

In C++ that is not the way to concatenate strings. try:

myfile.open (string(strPath) + "\\text.txt");

In C++ you cannot concatenate strings by just writing them next to each other. One of the ways is to strcat them or use the idiomatic c++ approach of converting to std::string and then use the + to concatenate them.
