Code goes like this:

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
    FILE *fptr;
    fptr=fopen("D:\\Emp.dat","w+");
    /* if(fptr=NULL)
    {
        printf("File cannot be created");
        exit(1);
    } */
    struct employee
    {
        int emp_id;
        char emp_name[20];
        float emp_salary;
    };
    struct employee emp[10],temp;
    int i,j,n;
    float tempforsalary;
     printf("How many records: ");
     scanf("%d",&n);
     for ( i = 0; i < n; i++)
    {
        printf("Emp id: ");
        scanf("%d",&emp[i].emp_id);
        printf("Emp Name: ");
        scanf("%s",emp[i].emp_name);
        printf("Salary: ");
        scanf("%f",&tempforsalary);
        emp[i].emp_salary=tempforsalary;
        fflush(stdin);
        fprintf(fptr,"\n Emp id\t Name \t Salary\n");
        fprintf(fptr,"\n %d\t %s\t %.2f\n ",emp[i].emp_id,emp[i].emp_name,emp[i].emp_salary);
        printf("\n");
    }
fclose(fptr);

    //Highest Salary
    for ( i = 0; i < n-1; i++)
    {
        for ( j = i+1; j < n; j++)
        {
            if(emp[i].emp_salary<emp[j].emp_salary)
            {
                temp=emp[i];
                emp[i]=emp[j];
                emp[j]=temp;
            }
        }     
    }
    //Printing highest Salary
    printf("Employee having highest salary: \n");
    printf("Emp Id: %d\t Name: %s\t Salary: %.2f",emp[0].emp_id,emp[0].emp_name,emp[0].emp_salary);

    return 0;
}

Output:

If we see in D: we can find Emp.dat file having following content:

If you are using Turbo C++ IDE, then use conio.h in link section after stdio.h
and use getch(); to hold the output screen, just before the end of main function.
If you have any confusion regarding the program, please, comment below.
Happy Coding !
Thank you
