Microsoft Visual Studio .NET (position text problem)

[Michael Boyle]

Hi,

Can anyone tell me if there is a command to position text in the Win32
Console project application like there was in the Borland C++ 5.5 i.e.
gotoxy(x,y).

Cheers,

Michael

This is not an appropriate question in this newsgroup, which treats
issues of the standard C++ language. You will find people more
knowledgeable about Win32 applications in Microsoft's fora. Sorry, I
don't know where to redirect you to off the top of my head. You could
start with Google.

Please understand I'm not trying to be mean. There are good reasons for
you to ask your question elsewhere. Also, bear in mind that it's
generally considered polite to read a group's FAQ before posting. Google
for 'C++ FAQ' to find the one for comp.lang.c++.

Good luck,
Buster.
