wrap this in [code=cpp] [/code] tags, with indents. And what do you mean you "want to match void getdata() and void stock()"?

You have a bit of work to do. In getdata() you are reading the book details into local variables, so match() can't access it. One approach would be to make title[] and author[] into class members (rename them so as not to clash with the existing names). In match() you can then compare your getdata() input with the existing stock.
