code:

var name, country : string var filevar : int var holdit : string (1) open : filevar, "a:/animal", put for counter : 1 .. 2     put "Please enter name of the #" ,counter, " animal followed by country "..     get name, country end for close : filevar put "" open : filevar, "a:/animal", get put "This is the display for all the animals and countries." put "When you are ready press Enter to get contents " put "of the file.." getch (holdit) cls for counter : 1 .. 2     get : filevar, name, country     put "Animal= ", name, " Country= ", country end for close : filevar

Easy.

You opened the file, got the input from the User, then closed the file. At no point did you write anything to it.

code:

put : filevar, name put : filevar, country
