Moving Files wont work?

[Branden Lizardi]

I have this simple code here, wanting to move this file,

eventually im going to make a program that will automatically organize my files. but for some reason, i cant figure out how to make the files move.

here's my code

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

using namespace std;

int main()
{
	string OldFile("C:\Users\LizardRock\Desktop/CALI.exe");
	string NewFile("C:\Users\LizardRock\Desktop\caliHere/ILAC.exe");
	cout<< "ready?" <<endl;
	cin.get();

	BOOL WINAPI MoveFile(
  __in  LPCTSTR OldFile,
  __in  LPCTSTR NewFile
);
}

If you cannot tell apart a function declaration from a function call, you need to get back to the basics first.

Also, backslashes are escape characters in string literals - as such, an actual backslash is represented by \\.
