    Whats wrong here?

    Code:
     //Begin Search Function
    void Search(/*char input[25]*/)
    {
    
    cout << "Please Enter The Surname You are searching for" << endl;
    cin.getline(input,NAME_LEN);
    
    
    int r;
    int t;
    int z = 0;
    
    do
    {
    z++;
    }while (input[z] != '\0');
    
    for(r=0; r<=n; r++)
    {
    for(t=0; t<z; t++)
    {
    if (ref[r].name[t] == input[t])
    {
    if (t == z-1)
    {
    displayOrder(ref[r]);
    system("pause");
    } 
    } 
    }
    //displayOrder(ref[r]);
    //system("pause");
    } 
    
    }
    //End Search Function
    
    //Begin Main
    int main(int argc, char *argv[])
    {
    InFile(ref[1]);
    n = 1;
    do
    {
    if ((ref[n].initials[0] >= 'A' & ref[n].initials[0] <= 'Z') ||
    (ref[n].initials[0] >= 'a' & ref[n].initials[0] <= 'z') )
    n++;
    //cout << n << endl;
    }while ((ref[n].initials[0] >= 'A' & ref[n].initials[0] <= 'Z') ||
    (ref[n].initials[0] >= 'a' & ref[n].initials[0] <= 'z') );
    (ref[n].initials[0] >= 'a' & ref[n].initials[0] <= 'z') );
    //system("pause");
    Search();
    GetOrder();
    cout << "Do you wish to see your orders?" << endl;
    new_order = YesNoQuestion();
    if (new_order == true)
    {
    system("cls");
    for (n=1; n<=m; n++)
    displayOrder(ref[n]);
    }
    
    
    OutFile(ref[1]);
    
    
    system("PAUSE");
    return 0;
    }
    //End Main

    In the line I've highlighted red it comes up with an error saying 'statement missing'. I'm new to this so what do you suggest? I'm probably being really thick because its something simple, but I've working on this for eight hours and my minds boggled. I would really appeciate the help
    thanks

    It doesn't belong to the while-loop due to the ; on the previous line
