//the view function
void view()
{
char choice3;
//opening the Records file
		Records = fopen("Records.txt","a+");
		do
		{
			fgets(info,SIZE,Records);
			printf("%s\n",info);

		}while(!feof(Records));
			fclose(Records);
			system("pause");
			printf("Search for records??(Y/N)\n");
			scanf("%c",&choice3);
			fflush(stdin);
			if (toupper(choice3)=='Y')
			{
			search();
		}
		else if(toupper(choice3)=='N')
		{
			fclose(Records);
			system("pause");
			system("cls");
			main_function();
		}

		else
		{
			fclose(Records);
			system("cls");
		}
}

Well, just replace them. If you are unsure now exactly it probably is because you need to read about it .

cin: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/iostream/cin/
cout: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/iostream/cout/

Also check out pretty much ANY console code sample you can get to see how these are used. For example, ideone.com has a lot of code samples (both good and bad). Check them out after reading the documentation and you'll easily complete this task.

Ok, Thanks I did. Is it correct?
Does this code looks like modern c++ code? or still looks like c code...

C++ provide ifstream for reading input from files; fopen and fclose calls are C style.

system("cls"); and system("pause"); are bad form in C and C++.
