If this is the code in your application, you have a problem with the
declaration of your vars.
1 - you declare rec has Char*
2 - you declare rec has StudentRecord (in the loop)
=> No problem, the second declaration will overwrite the first one.
Error: you CANNOT declare StudentRecord *rec AFTER setting RecordHa.
Unless you are doing C++. You have to declare the var at the beginiing
of the block, and affect it later.
