I know, but now I know they are supposed to be class's or structures, and I must admit I didn't read thuroly(however you spell that) enough on those. Thanks, i'll re-read those tutorials and i'll figure it out. I have been working on re-reading all of the learning C++ tutorials and then reading all the advanced tutorials once I reach that point. THANKS again bubba

As for you tabstop I have no idea how he got that script, but when I posed this code:

Code:

    HANDLE h = GetStdHandle ( STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE );
    WORD wOldColorAttrs;
    CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO csbiInfo;

                      GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo(h, &csbiInfo);
                    wOldColorAttrs = csbiInfo.wAttributes;

    GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo(h, &csbiInfo);
    wOldColorAttrs = csbiInfo.wAttributes;

    SetConsoleTextAttribute ( h, FOREGROUND_BLUE | FOREGROUND_INTENSITY );

it did say: the wOldColorAttrs a couple of times

Wahey.

My advice is to stop thinking of code (note: these aren't scripts) as something other than magic. Something that can be read, and thought about, and understood.

Hah, thats true, I understand a lot of what i know, but I don't understand, some of it, I just know what it does... But that s the first step, then once I mes with it, I tend to understand it.
