Vowel program

pasports10 (11)
I need to create a program that outputs whether or not this is a vowel outputting if is true or false. Yet, everything is just outputting that it is not a vowel (output is 0 for letter 'a'.)

#include <fstream>

bool isVowel(char ch);

using namespace std;

int main()
{
	ifstream inData;
	ofstream outData;
	
	char vowel;
	
	inData.open("input.txt");
	outData.open("output.txt");
	
	
	
	inData >> vowel;
	
	
	isVowel(vowel);
	
	outData << "The letter tests << isVowel(vowel) << for a vowel. <<endl;
		
	inData.close ();
	outData.close();
	
	system("pause");
	return 0;
}

bool isVowel(char ch)
{
	int value;
	switch(ch) 
	{
	  	case 'a' : case 'A':
	  		value = 1;
	  		break;
	  	case 'e' : case 'E':
	  		value = 1;
	  		break;	
	  	case 'i' : case 'I':
	  		value = 1;
	  		break;
	  	case 'o' : case 'O':
	  		value = 1;
	  		break;
	  	case 'u' : case 'U':
	  		value = 1;
	  		break;
		default:
			value = 0;
	}
  return value;
}

What is your input file? Also might want to fix your outData statement...you're missing some quotations.

Sorry, I had modified it on my source but nothing is working.

What is the contents of your input file? Also does your input file exist in the same directory as your program?
