Please help me with reading data

I'm trying to read data from a separated file into array of structures. Somehow this thing is driving me crazy. I did almost the same thing with my teacher on another example but her works, mine doesn't. Please please please help me. Thank you in advance Here is my complete code to read but it doesn't do it. FML

include <iostream>
include <fstream>
include <iomanip>
include <string>
include <cctype>

using namespace std;

struct itemtype
{
int id;
int onhand;
double price;
string description;

};

void get_data (itemtype[], int&); int main()
{
itemtype inventory [20];
int count = 0;
int i = 0;
get_data (inventory, count);
for (i = 0; i < count; i++);
{
cout << inventory[count].id << " " << inventory[count].onhand
<< " " << inventory[count].price << endl
<< inventory[count].description << endl << endl;
}
system ("pause");
return 0;

}

void get_data (itemtype inventory[], int& count)
{
ifstream input;
string file;
file = "data111.txt";
input.open(file.c_str());
count = 0;
input >> inventory[count].id;
while (!input.eof())
{
input >> inventory[count].onhand >> inventory[count].price;
getline(input,inventory[count].description);
count++;
input >> inventory[count].id;
}
input.close();

}

Your cout is wrong change it from

1
2
3

cout << inventory[count].id << " " << inventory[count].onhand
<< " " << inventory[count].price << endl
<< inventory[count].description << endl << endl;

1
2
3

cout << inventory[i].id << " " << inventory[i].onhand
<< " " << inventory[i].price << endl
<< inventory[i].description << endl << endl; // Note i instead of count

Use code tags: [code]Your code[/code]
