Help with parallel array

Strait out of a book I am working on this and the compiler (Bloodshed Dev C++) will not accept it.

The errors:
18 C:\Documents and Settings\Bill\My Documents\parrallel array.cpp `planet' undeclared (first use this function)
19 C:\Documents and Settings\Bill\My Documents\parrallel array.cpp `distance' undeclared (first use this function)
38 C:\Documents and Settings\Bill\My Documents\parrallel array.cpp expected primary-expression before '=' token

Can anyone find the problem why it will not take 'planet' and 'distance'??

Thanks

Code below.

Code:

#include <iostream.h>
#include <string.h>

#define length = 8
#define max = 9

#define TAB '\t'


    

int main()
{
    char planet[max][length];
    int distance[max];
    int index;
    //Initialize the two arrays
    strcpy(planet[0], "MERCURY" );
    distance[0] = 58;
    strcpy(planet[1], "VENUS" );
    distance[1] = 108;
    strcpy(planet[2], "EARTH" );
    distance[2] = 150;
    strcpy(planet[3], "MARS" );
    distance[3] = 228;
    strcpy(planet[4], "JUPITER" );
    distance[4] = 778;
    strcpy(planet[5], "SATURN" );
    distance[5] = 1427;
    strcpy(planet[6], "URANUS" );
    distance[6] = 2869;
    strcpy(planet[7], "NEPTUNE" );
    distance[7] = 4498;
    strcpy(planet[8], "PLUTO" );
    distance[8] = 5900;
    
    cout << TAB << TAB << "PLANET" << TAB << TAB << "DISTANCE" << endl << endl;
    for(index = 0; index < max; index++)
    {
              cout << TAB << TAB <<planet[index];
              cout << TAB << TAB <<distance[index] << endl;
              }
              cout << endl;
              
                 cin.ignore(256, '\n');
          cout << "Press ENTER to continue..." << endl;
          cin.get();
          return 0;
          }

 

You should define the #define as

Code:

#define length 8
#define max 9

 

You Rule! I did not see that after three hours!

 

You just need fresh pair of eyes and nothing more than that.
