        break;
    }

getch();
    }


What's the problem of this coding? I can run it, but once choose no. 1, there haven an error. If my coding is wrong, please inform me. I still a beginner, hope you all can help me in this.

The error is i left an ampersand of scanf("%d",option);
it should be scanf("%d",&option);
another problem is the string...
it should not be scanf("%s",&add.name); instead of scanf("%s",add.name);
because it was a string, so cannot use ampersand in the scanf...

You forgot to add ampersand & before option variable. 
 scanf("%d",option);

should be 
 scanf("%d",&option);

option is an int, so here need & in scanf. 
second: ampersand  need to remove before add.name
 scanf("%s",&add.name)

should be 
 scanf("%s",add.name)

add.name is a char array we don't need & with %s

Thanks for the answer...now i having another problem...i changed the code...but there's some problem...can you help me check?

Add a fflush(stdout); between these two statements:
    printf("Contact Name: ");
    scanf("%s",&add.name); 

Same with your other printf statements that don't end with a \n character.
And for information s conversion specifier expects a pointer to char so don't use the & operator and just call scanf("%s", add.name).
