Try this , i basically work in C & C++ , i use this code to perform file operation

int main()
{
  char filename[10];char extension[5]=".txt"; 
  printf("Enter the name of file you wish to see\n");
  gets(filename);
  fflush(stdin);
  filename[10]='\0';
  strcat(filename,extension);
  puts(filename);

  FILE *p; char acline[80];
  p=fopen(filename,"r");
  if(p==NULL)
  {
      printf("%s file is missing\n",filename);system("pause");
  }

  fseek(p,0,SEEK_SET);     // Setting file pointer to beginning of the file
  while (!feof(p))         // Detecting end of file
  {
     fgets(acline,80,p);  
     puts(acline);
  }
  printf("\n File end\n");
  system("pause");
}

*but while(!feof()) has certain issues see this
