    gotoxy will be specific to your compiler, its not something you will find much really, Borland turbo c had this function in a header file, you will have to stick with that or preferably use one of the alternatives listed in the http://faq.cprogramming.com/

    it depends on your compiler, you wont really see that function much now, in old borland turbo C you could use it, was in one of the headers o happy days, you should now use one of the alternatives you can find on the FAQ pages, i dont know what MSDN is though....haha Microsoft Developer Network??
