RE: scanf() question:
 
It seems to me that the fprintf() is the problem.  When you try to print a
string to the file and you write "fprintf(file,"%s",line[80]);" what you are
writing is garbage. The program will try to write the string at address
&line + 80 and end with a \0 char. So the correct format should be
"fprintf(file,"%s",&line);"...
