Error, Please help

[rayisnear]

Any one mind helping me? i'm new to this site. I'm just trying to finish this program. The only thing that i haven't gotten to work is the prompt for the record number, but everything else works. Sorry if this might be super easy for some of you guys lol.
Any help or suggestions please!

		cin >> choice;
		if (choice == 1) {
			write_report();
		}
		else if (choice == 2) {
			read_report();
		}

    return 0;

I added two lines to the write function to fix the prompt. I don't know what is best practice is. This solution is from C++ Primer Plus by Stephen Prata.

			read_report();

	return 0;
