I am having trouble with executing my executable file by executing my program from the location of the program. I am using eclipse, and when I paste the location of my executable file from debug in eclipse, onto the command prompt my program works perfectly. However when I try to execute my program from the location of the debug, my program is altered, any help please?

After it begins to execute, is your program using relative paths to input files that might be different?
Are you an administrator on the computer and/or running eclipse as administrator? You could try running the command prompt as administrator to confirm that it isn't a permissions issue.

You can't work it in the debug. Because the program is working in the normal directory. Simply work in normal directory and its fine.
Your question does not seem like a real question.

I want to run this .BAT file when a user logs into their windows account:
[file.bat]
start http://www.google.ca
Add the batch file to the Windows Startup folder.
Add it to the startup folder located here:
C:\Documents and Settings\(user)\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
EDIT:
I saw your comment now.
You could add it to your startup directly through the registry:
Run regedit through the RUN (Start+R), then go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
And add the appropriate path for the .bat

I'm having a problem with getting this code to print out to file due to some undefined behavior. It seems that when I test it the output file opened but was empty. can anyone run it on their system and tell me if it work on your system or is it not working at all. Also can you provide me with the output file if you run it.
here is the code

and the data for the file

thanks
Per the code comments:
The compiler is supposed to be gcc, the system("PAUSE") won't "work" in most UNIXes. It looks like it is meant to be compiled under cygwin running on a Windows PC, or under Linux. Not Windows. The PAUSE part makes very little sense, since that is largely a DOS command. You had to have copied the code from someone, it looks like the code scores competing ice skaters. The probability that it is production code is low.
Where did you get the code, and what assignment is this supposed to be for?
Suggestion:
See www.cygwin.com to install cygwin on your PC.

I have practically no experience with programming outside of ide's (Microsoft Visual Studio, netbeans and eclipse) and I am beginning to learn C programming. I have adequate experience with C++ and Java. I have downloaded gVim 7.3 and am looking for some guidance on how to program in C with vim. I do not even know where to type code with vim! I am completely lost and am looking for instructions to run simple command-line programs such as hello-world (to start). Also, would notepad++ be of any use?
Somebody please show me the world of C programming and Vim
Usually its done like this - you open up a shell window, set your compile enviroment configuration. Then open any files you are working on with gvim to have a C syntax highlighting available, modify them and save. Get back to shell window repeat make command or whatever you need to compile and link application.
The usefull extension for me was ctags, which allows to browse declarations. You dont get the comfort of code completions, intelissence, on-the-fly error messages or list of function parameters, but I didnt miss that much eitherway.

I need to write a very basic program in C to do some calculations for a colleague at work (not at all an entirely IT literate workplace) and from my experience, running any .exe in windows (7) makes it have an absolute fit, sometimes preventing it from running the program at all. Is there any way I can make the program just run without a fuss for my colleague?
EDIT: By 'have an absolute fit' I mean windows will either stop the user from running the .exe entirely, or ask for user permission x amount of times etc. It would probably be solved by turning UAC off, but trying to explain something even as simple as that down the phone probably isn't an option.
Two suggestions:
a) Use static linking, try to include all exec you need to your application. Provide all dependencies that you can not link statically with your app. To check dependencies, use DependencyWalker for example.
b) Run as administrator your program on win7.
If your problem in UAC then simply arrange that your app doesn't do anything that requires administrator rights. In particular:
Don't write to the HKLM part of the registry.
Don't save files in restricted folders system32, Program Files etc.
Whatever you do don't ask users to turn off UAC and don't ask them to run as administrator.

I would consider myself a fairly competent programmer with experience in Java and VB.net. My latest swim around the programming lake is having me modify a program written in C. (The program is Wireshark, an open source network analyzing tool.) I followed the instructions here http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChSetupWin32.html and simply don't know where to go from there. I'd like to use Visual Studio 2008 to work with the code if possible, but will do whatever is necessary. (I'm a total noob at using command prompt to do anything though.)
If you followed those steps, then you've built it. I'll copy Section 2.2.10 here.
2.2.10. Build Wireshark
Now it's time to build Wireshark ...
If you've closed cmd.exe in the meantime, prepare cmd.exe again
nmake -f Makefile.nmake all to build Wireshark
wait for Wireshark to compile - this may take a while!
run C:\wireshark\wireshark-gtk2\wireshark.exe and check if it starts
Just make changes in the code, do these steps over again, and presto! you've modified the program. You may want to bone up on C debuggers if you're doing anything very complicated.
