Solution 1

For instance using the stream classes provided by <fstream> header, as you may find in any C++ book (even bad ones). Examples here [^].

Solution 3

Just to note, fstream is C++, and the FileOpen, etc. methods are C and should NOT be used in C++ if you can at all avoid it.

And, of course, the core issue is that you need to buy a basic C++ book and read it.
