c++ program to search a word in txt file

None

The thing is I want to create a c++ program which will ask the user to input a word and the program will search the word in the text file and count no of times it occurs.Can anyone provide coding for that or any function which could be useful ?

i think it can be done as--first input the word then apply for loop for the string and apply condition if(string[i]==word)then count++;it will give the no. of times the word has occured

though it not completely correct but it gives me some idea..we need to start the loop of both variables word as well as string at same time.

My problem is I am making a list of organic reactions ...ok so I will ask the user to input the name of any one reactants and my program will give the possbile products so for that I will need to compare the input word many times and it needs to give output different too..counting was for general actually no need for my program
