This is a program that holds inventory. The program displays a menu of options. Everything else works perfect except the delete an entry function. I do not know how to make it delete a function. I put a variable to find the location but i really have no idea how. I enter the item name to be deleted and then i enter display entry and it goes into an infinite mess. Someone help me on how to make it select an item and delete it from the inventory. It is used in Visual Studios 2010, Here is the code
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#define SIZE 25
#define MAX 100
typedef struct {
char item[SIZE]; //item for the company
char company[SIZE]; //company that sells the item
int intStock; //how many of the item are instock
char lastShipDate[SIZE]; //last ship date of that item
double cost; //cost to make the item
double price; //price of the item
} gaming;
//prompts the user to get a selection
int Menu(void);
//display the options to the user
void DisplayOptions(void);
//display some entries for inventory
void HardCodeEntries(gaming entry[],int *size);
//function to add a new entry to the inventory
void AddNewEntry(gaming entry[], int *size);
//function to delete a selected entry from inventory
void Delete(gaming entry[], int *size, int location);
//display the current inventory to screen
void Display(gaming entry[], int size);
//save the current inventory to file
void SaveInventory(gaming br[], int *size);
//clears out the entire inventory

Following your coding style, although it should improve:
void remove_item(gaming entry[], int *size, int item) {
memcpy(&entry[item], &entry[*size], sizeof(entry[0]));
*size = *size - 1;
}
This code will override the desired entry (at index item) and decrease the last index (size) by one.
