Remove the declaration of *fopen().

This line:

FILE *fopen(), *fp;

should be:

FILE *fp;

Hi,

Did you cut and paste the code from a doc or html file?
You have some invalid characters in your file, try this:

#include <stdio.h>

void main()
{
  FILE  *fp;
  int c;
  char filename[40];

  printf("Enter file to be displayed: ");
  gets( filename );

  fp = fopen( filename, "r");

  c = getc( fp );

  while ( c != EOF )
  {
    putchar(c);
    c = getc ( fp );
  }

  fclose( fp );
}

And place your code within code blocks next time, that makes it easier to read.

Regards
