moving the cursor in a console app

[Phill Heald]

Hi cup..
Im using VC6 to write a Win32 app for the PC running on Win2000. Does this give a better clue ??

cheers Philip..

Investigate the Win32 Console API functions. Screen handling in Win32 console programming is done through the Console API.

The function that you want is SetConsoleCursorPosition.
