Remark if word not found in text

I wrote a program that searched a file word by word, looking for keywords from another file that needed to be replaced in the first file. I did this, but I need to state an error message if one of the keyword was never found.
This is what i tried,

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.         for (int i = 0; i < count; i++){
  2.             if (potter.eof() && (text != word[i])){
  3.                 cout << endl << endl;
  4.                 cout << word[i] << endl;
  5.             }
  6.         }
where potter is the file is was searching, word[i] is an array of the keywords, and text is the word from the potter file I am checking. I realize why this doesn't work, its outputting for each individual word if the keyword was not found instead of the whole text. But I am having problems fixing this.

Sorry if this was confusing, and thanks for any help.

text != word[i]
How is text and word defined??

If these are char arrays, the compare always fails since you are comparing the addresses of the arrays and the arrays are always in different memory locations.

If these are C++ string objects, maybe you could post a little more code.
