    The problem im having with my program is that. After i type the students name it, press return, its goes down not across to the next title. DOB and then to TEST1 etc.

    HTML:
    /* Header.c */
    #include <stdio.h>
    
    //////////////// Prototypes /////////////////////////////////////////////////////
    
    void OutputHeader();
    void Variable();
    void Student();
    
    
    //////////////////////// Global Variables //////////////////
    int EeCode;
    float StudentsName, DOB, Test1, Test2, Test3, Test4, Average, Grading, SumOfMarks, Exit;
    int Pass, Merit, Distinction, Fail, y=2;
    ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
    
    void main (void)
    {
    	 OutputHeader();
    	 Variable();
    	 gotoxy(1,y);
    	 scanf("%d",&EeCode);
    		while (EeCode !=0)
    		{
    			Student();
    			y++;
    			gotoxy(1,y);
    			scanf("%d", EeCode);
    		}
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    getch();
    
    }
    
    ///////////////////////////////// My Functions ///////////////////////////////////
    
    void OutputHeader()
    	{
    	clrscr();
    	 gotoxy(1, 1);
    	printf("Students Name  D.O.B   Test 1  Test 2  Test 3  Test 4   Average  Grading");
    	}
    
    
    void Variable()
    	{
    	Pass=0;
    	Merit=0;
    	Distinction=0;
    	Fail=0;
    	}
    
    void Student()
    	{
    	gotoxy(16, y);
    	scanf("%f", &DOB);
    	gotoxy(24, y);
    	scanf("%f", &Test1);
    	gotoxy(32, y);
    	scanf("%f", &Test2);
    	gotoxy(40, y);
    	scanf("%f", &Test3);
    	gotoxy(48, y);
    	scanf("%f", &Test4);
    
    	 /* CalcAverageMark */
    	 SumOfMarks = Test1 +Test2 + Test3 + Test4;
    	 Average = SumOfMarks / 4;
      gotoxy(53, y);  printf("%6.0f\n", Average);
    	}

    Search through recent posts in this forum for the proper use of scanf. Hint: most people's names cannot be successfully converted to a floating point number.

    That said, aside from defining the name as a float, I don't see where you're actually asking for it. As an aside, I trust you realize that your use of screen-positioning functions is non-portable code.
