Program is skipping over Getline() without taking user input [duplicate]

Answer 1

Cin is probably leaving the carriage return in the buffer which getline retrieves. Try

cin.ignore(1000, '\n');

cin.getline(Record[Entrynumber].Address,70);

The >> operator doesn't remove the newline character after retrieving data, but ignores leading whitespace before retrieving data, while getline just retrieves whatever is in there, and removes the '\n' after reading as it is apart of the line it is 'getting'.

Answer 2

Seeing as how there might be input left over in the buffer which your getline is reading first, I'd suggest you clear the buffer before trying to input the next data:

std::cin.ignore(std::numeric_limits<std::streamsize>::max(),'\n');
