how do you make the X Y thing work?

[bluehead]

to move a thing x and y how do you do it? Im still confused For example, I want to move an object up down left and right.

your question is too vague. Do you wish to move something within a table/gameboard like doing a maze or playing checkers OR are you trying to place something (a cursor, or a bitmap, or something) at a specific spot on the screen? If the latter are you using DOS, Windows, MAC, Unix, or some other operation system?
