How can be count the number of rows in a .txt file? I''m copying text to array, each row taking up one array slot. But I don''t know how long the loop should go on.

You stop when you hit the end of file or run out of space to store the data.

You can either do EOF checks with C++ funtions or simply have a string that signifies it''s the end. Have it look for something like "no more" and if it finds it then it stops ready entries
