CIS 2500 Contacts List App

The Problem

You are to adapt the code that you developed in Assignment 3 to produce an interface that reads the myContactsList.db file and displays it and allows for a number of actions.

The record that you wrote to myContactsList.db has the following structure:

struct contact {
unsigned long phone_number;
long first_name_posn;
long last_name_posn;
long company_name_posn;
long email_posn;
long next;
};

Changes to the original Assignment 3 code:

• You must enter either a Last Name or a Company Name for each contact (as well as the phone number and email).
• You must check that the phone number has either 7 or 10 digits.
• The email address must have the following format: string@string.ccc

Your interface will allow the following to be done:

1. List all contacts in alphabetical (ascending) order by name (either last name or company name) only displaying the name. Only 5 names will be displayed at a time. You can tell the interface to scroll down or up one name at a time.

2. Add a new contact.

3. Allow one of the contacts to be selected (by the number beside it on the display).

4. Display the full information for the selected contact.

5. Change the phone number or email for a selected contact.

6. Delete a selected contact.

7. Return to the full contacts list.

8. Exit the program (all changes to the myContactsList.db file must be written to disk).

Interface

The full contacts list interface is as follows:

Number of Contacts = 20
A
1. Aberfoyle Mill

The action inputs are the following:
