Some help in C

Hey guys,

I need some help writing code for a really simple inventory program. I need to code a program that has two sections. i already have the base program. I am using switch statements to choose between the two sections. Here is my problem: i need to set up a loop inside these switch statements. I am going to use 9999 as the sentinel to go between the sections, and i need to set EOF as the controlling sentinel to exit the program. I have tried to put two switch statements before each case in switch, and put a main while with the switch statement inside. But it does not work. If anybody knows what i am doing wrong please let me know.

ok, im not sure that i know exactly what you want, but ill give it a shot here:

Code:

while(sectionSelectVar != EOF)    //i dont really remember what how to represent an EOF
{
    switch(sectionSelectionVar)
    {
          case 1:
              while(sectionSelectionVar != 9999 && sectionSelectionVar != EOF)
                      sectionSelectionVar = section1();
              if(sectionSelectionVar == 9999)
                      sectionSelectionVar = 2;
              break;

          case 2:
              while(sectionSelectionVar != 9999 && sectionSelectionVar != EOF)
                      sectionSelectionVar = section2();
              if(sectionSelectionVar == 9999)
                      sectionSelectionVar = 2;
              break;
    }//end switch
}//end while
