[greve]

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;

struct name
{
int first;
int second;
};

name fun()
{
name space;
space.first=2;
return space;
}


int main()
{
name Result;

Result= fun();

cout<< Result.first << Result.second;

}

The problem isn't the return (besides the typo in your code) of the structure but the attempt to pass the structure to cout. A quick solution is shown above - if you really want to cout your structure you need to overload the operator<< for your structure.

Also: just because you CAN return a structure (or class) doesn't mean it's necessarily the smart thing to do.
