What if there are multiple records matching the search query? How about this

Code:

bool found=false;
while (fread(...) == 1) {
   if (strcmp(...) == 0) {
      // ...
      found = true;
   }
}
if (!feof(fp)) {
   fprintf(stderr, "Error in reading file!\n");
   exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
if (!found) {
   printf("No records found!\n");
}
