    Hello all!

    I am trying to build a project with a header file called exchange.h and a source file called exchange.cpp.

    When I try to save the exchange.cpp, I am told 'A file named exchange.cpp already exists in AssignmentProj02 (my project directory. Please specify another filename.'

    I have checked in the AssignmentProj02 directory and no such file appears to exist.

    I am new to C++ and this compiler. Please take pity on me! I'm desperate! Help!

      Hello,
      If you make any changes to your code, and you go to save it by the same name, the message "File  already exists " will come up, and should ask if you wish to overwrite it.
