hi,

Now am trying to display something the user enters onto the graphics screen. like if am accepting his initial into 'a' and want to display it. How should i do it

used :-

I think it would be.

outtextxy(13,13,a) - but its givin the below error

dev c++ compiler does not support any of the functions in graphics.h. You need more than just a .h file -- you will also need a *.lib library file which dev c++ does not support. So even if you get your program to compile it will not link due to lack of libraries.

If you really want to use functions in graphics.h then you have a couple options: (1) use old version of Turbo C/C++ or (2) Upgrade to newest version of Turbo C (I don't know if that version supports graphics.h or not, I doubt it because I think Borland made a 32-bit compiler out of it and graphic.h was for 16-bit MS-DOS operating system)

hey, how bout if u try to make it outtextxy(13,13,"a") instead......this function, as far as i know doesn't work without quotes.......

I think it might be.
outtextxy(13,13,"a")

All you need to do is read his request:

'a' is a variable. It contains what the user typed in. You don't use double quotes around a variable if you want to display what was entered. abhijit11 used the function correctly -- unless he defined 'a' as a single character. But we don't know that.
