Can Anyone spot the error here

Here is a code I m currently working upon. It is related to array of structures. This program is currently working fine. But If I replace the data type of salary variable in the structure employee to float, a logical error arises. I cannot enter the salary value while scanf.Even if I change the format specifier, the problem persists.

Can anybody locate the error and how would it be resolved? 

#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>

struct employee
{
int emp_no;
char emp_name[25];
int salary;
};

void main()
{
   struct employee emp[2];
   int i;
   clrscr();
   for(i=0;i<2;i++)
   {
       printf("enter details for employee #%d:\n",(i+1));
       printf("code:");
       scanf("%d",&emp[i].emp_no);
       printf("name:");
       scanf("%s",emp[i].emp_name);
       printf("salary:");
       scanf("%d",&emp[i].salary);
   }
   printf("\n");
   for(i=0;i<2;i++)
   {
       printf("details of employee #%d are:\n", (i+1));
       printf("code: %d\n", emp[i].emp_no);
       printf("name: %s\n", emp[i].emp_name);
       printf("salary: %d\n", emp[i].salary);
   }
   getch();
}

Just include this function after your main function:

static void force_fpf(){

float x,*y;

y=&x;

x=*y;

}

This will run your program successfully

Your compiler is optimizing the output binary size and is not linking with floating point formatting. Check your compiler/linker settings.
