Uggghhh.... I tested that code (just to test the word thing) and it does not work... I revised it some, still does not work. I think I might have time to fix it later tonight, but I am not sure .

Yes, we already told you it won't work right. The most obvious offender is
Code: void convert_to_lower(string string) { //converts the input to lower case
int length = string.length();
for (int c = 0; c < length; c++) //loops through input
string[c] = tolower(string[c]);
}
for 2 reasons. One, you shouldn't name the variable the same as a type, the compiler might choke on that. 2, it won't modify the string you pass as an argument because it is a local variable. You aren't passing it as a pointer, hence it will be modifying a copy and not the original. You can solve that in two ways. 1) pass it as a pointer, or the more logical 2) just return the new string
