In the mean time, here is a starter. See if it is any use to you.
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>
#include <conio.h>
#include <cstdlib>

//-- using std::cout;
using std::cin;
using std::endl;
using std::getline;
using std::string;
//-- struct Contact
{
  string name;
  string number;
};

int main()
{  
  std::size_t RecordSize = 3;
  /*cout<<"Enter number of Contact entries: ";
  cin>>RecordSize;
  cin.get();*/

  Contact* ContactRecord = new Contact[RecordSize];
  
  /*for(std::size_t i = 0; i < RecordSize; ++i)
  {
    cout<<"Enter Name: ";
    getline(cin, ContactRecord[i].name);
    cout<<"Phone number ";
    cin>>ContactRecord[i].number;
    cin.get();
  }*/
  ContactRecord[0].name = "Val"; ContactRecord[0].number = "123";
  ContactRecord[1].name = "Alex"; ContactRecord[1].number = "456";
  ContactRecord[2].name = "Val"; ContactRecord[2].number = "789";
  
  system("cls");  
  
  //Let's review all Contact Records.
  cout<<"Current Contact Records:"<<endl;
  for (std::size_t i = 0; i < RecordSize; ++i)
  {
    cout<<ContactRecord[i].name<<" "<<ContactRecord[i].number<<endl;
  }
  
  char MenuController ;
  string ContactName;
  bool FoundContacts(false);
  //Contact lookup menu loop. while(true)
  {
    cout<<endl;
    cout<<"Would you like to lookup a contact (y = yes, other = no)?"<<endl;
    cin.get(MenuController); 
    cin.get();
    system("cls");

    if(MenuController != 'y')
    {
      //User does not want to lookup contacts: exit contact lookup menu loop. break;
    }
    //User wants to lookup contacts.
    cout<<"Enter the name of the contact."<<endl;
    getline(cin, ContactName);
    for(std::size_t i = 0; i < RecordSize; ++i)
    {
      if(ContactRecord[i].name == ContactName)
      {
        FoundContacts = true;
        cout<<"Found match in record "<<i+1<<": "<<ContactName<<" - "
          <<ContactRecord[i].number<<endl;
      }
    }  
      if(FoundContacts == false)
      {
        cout<<"No contacts found with the specified name."<<endl;
      }
      FoundContacts = false;
  }
  //Free the memory resources. Observe square brackets in delete[]. delete[] ContactRecord;
  return 0;
}
