    <p>Hey everyone I'm currently having some trouble in making the switch statement coming back out around to the start of the menu. Instead it proceeds into another main function that I don't want it to unless the user chooses the right selection. </p> <p>here's the code I have anyway:</p> <pre><code>int main() { int choice; bool menu = true; cout &lt;&lt;"Please select one of the following options: \n"; cout &lt;&lt; "1: Play\n" "2: Help\n" "3: Config\n" "4: Quit\n"; cout &lt;&lt; "Enter your selection (1, 2,3 or 4): "; cin &gt;&gt; choice; //***************************************************************************** // Switch menu to display the menu. //***************************************************************************** if(menu) { switch (choice) { case 1: cout &lt;&lt; "You have chosen play"; break; case 2: cout &lt;&lt; "You have chosen help\n"; cout &lt;&lt; "Here is a description of the game Hangman and how it is played:\nThe word to guess is represented by a row of dashes, giving the number of letters, numbers and category. If the guessing player suggests a letter or number which occurs in the word, the other player writes it in all its correct positions"; break; case 3: cout &lt;&lt; "You have chosen config"; break; case 4: cout &lt;&lt; "You have chosen Quit, Goodbye."; break; default: cout&lt;&lt; "Your selection must be between 1 and 4!\n"; } } getchar(); getchar(); cout &lt;&lt; "You missed " &lt;&lt; playGame("programming"); cout &lt;&lt; " times to guess the word programming." &lt;&lt; endl; </code></pre> <p>}</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
