Question

Hello I'm programming in C language. my question is: I'm new to programming in C. I've been writing different structure problems to get better. But i am having trouble reading and writing to a file using a structure. I made up a text file and i would to create a structure using id, name, and age. I want to see the easiest way to read the file using a structure and then run the program displaying the ID with their name and birthday. Thank you for your help I really hope this helps me understand what i'm doing wrong overall. Thanks, if you could include any comments that would be greatly appreciated, thanks. Also any references to great source examples on the net would be awesome .

The text file i created is below but if you dont like it you could use something else. Thanks!
