When i compile and run this code i have the following problem:

the printprop line at the end of editprop function will show what is typed
at the scanf("%s%,prop.name); line.
All the other lines though, will not change. the data in the ints stays the
same as before the function runs.
if, however, one does
prop.purccost=**any number not purccost** , then it will show in the
printprop, so i know that the data is passing prperly to the print function.
it behaves the same whether i use %i %hi %hd or %d in the scanf line

Any help would be greatly appreiciated.
Thank you

                bool mortgaged;
                 int rent[6];
        }
