Hello all, I was wondering if anyone could tell me if there is a VC++ equivalent to the borland compiler function gotoxy()? it allows you to direct output to areas of the screen, designated by coordinates like (1,1) thank you for your help in advance. willzofsteel

Yes there is something like MoveTo if you''re using MFC classes or MoveToEx if you want to use classic Win32 API.

The Goto(X,Y) is just like in Borland. you can get it with the #include <conio.h>
