Read a line at time using getline[^], then use string::find[^] to search for the word in the line.

when ever i use getline it shows getline() undeclared identifier

FILE *fp;
fp = fopen("address.txt","a");
char str[1024];
getline(fp,str);

i have these header files
string,iostream,fstream

getline takes an istream object, not a FILE pointer. Create an ifstream instance instead of using fopen
