the \ symbol is an escape character, you need to escape IT to use it: "\" is incorrect, "\\" is correct.
Can you expand a little more? I kind of don't understand. I'm a newbie to C++. Thank You!

This is how my code looks like:
cpp

char choice, Yes;
char Continue = Yes;
int State;
int count;
int main()
{
cout << "Welcome to Hangman" << endl;
{
void RunGame();
cout << "Do you want to play again (Yes or No)?" << endl;
cin >> Continue;
Continue = toupper(Continue);
}
cout << "Thanks for Playing." << endl;
char C;
ifstream Datfile;
count=0;
while((C=Datfile.peek()) != EOF)
Datfile >> Words [count++];
if (count > MAX_WORDS - 1)
count--;
Datfile.close();
void Rungame();
{
int Word;
int Size;
int State = 1;
int Subscript=0;
char guess[MAX_WORD_SIZE];
char copy[MAX_WORD_SIZE];
char letter;
int Correct = 0;
strcpy_s(copy,Words[Word]);
Size = strlen(Words[Word]);
for(; Subscript < Size; Subscript++);
{
guess[Subscript] = '-';
}
guess[Subscript] = '\0';
while(State != 6)
{
DrawGallows(State);
cout << "Guess the word: XXXXXX" << endl;
cout << "Guess a letter: " << endl;
cin >> letter;
letter = tolower(letter);
for(Subscript =0; Subscript < Size; Subscript++)
{
if(copy[Subscript] == letter)
{
guess[Subscript] = letter;
Correct = 1;
cout << "Good Guess." << endl;
if(strcmp(Words[Word], guess) == 0)
{
cout << "Congratulations! You guessed the word...play again? Yes/No" << endl;
cin >> choice;
while(Continue == 'Yes');
}
}
}
if(Correct = 0)
{
cout << "Sorry, Bad Guess!" << endl;
State++;
}
Correct = 0;
}
DrawGallows(State);
}
void DrawGallows(int State);
{
if(State==6)
{
cout << endl << endl
<<" +----+ "<< endl
