I have been working with C, in TURBO compiler.
Now I have started C++, in VC++ compiler.
But, now, I m unable to clear screen (clrscr() don't work), can't write at any desired location (gotoxy() don't work)
Can anybody plz tell me their equivalents ?

system("cls"); for clearing the screen. This is NOT portable so it's not a good thing to use it. Why do you need it?Gotoxy(); is a different story. You first need a handle to your console window, use GetConsoleWindow() for that. Then when you have the handle use SetConsoleCursorPosition() to set the cursor.Regards Niek
