gotoxy function call

Hi, sorry if this is such a simple question it seems trivial to you guys but I'm just learning C++ so here goes.

I know there is a gotoxy function call for setting text output to a specific text slot on the monitor, but I can't find the include library with the function declaration. I'm running Visual C++ 6.0 and so far I've no had much luck compiling

void main()
{
gotoxy(5,5);
cout << 'a' << endl;
getch();
}

('gotoxy' : undeclared identifier) <--: error message

Any help with how to solve this issue would be most appreciated.

Thanks,
artalin

visual c++ 6 doesnt have a gotoxy() function but it is easy enough to write one. Read the FAQ to see how to do this.

Rather than just giving you a fish because you're hungry, I'm going to teach you how to fish :D

go to Start->Find->Files or Folders

click "Browse" and navigate to your compiler's "Include" folder, and click "OK".

Now type in the box labeled "containing text":

gotoxy

Click "Find Now".

Doh, me=stupid noob.

sorry fellas
