msvc++

put this in your source file:

void setcolour(unsigned short colour)
{
HANDLE HandleConsoleText = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);
SetConsoleTextAttribute(HandleConsoleText,colour);
}

Make sure it's outside the main function.

to change the colour in console text, all you do now is, put this before the text:

setcolout();

inside the brackets you put a number, this is the colour, experiment with different numbers to get different colours
e.g.

setcolout(78);

gives you yellow text on a red background.

Go Microsoft Visual C++ (ROCK ON!) (i am also new to C++)

I hope this helps, ciao.

sorry i made a mistake, accidentally spelling something wrong,

i put:

setcolout();

sorry i made a spelling mistake, you put:

setcolour();

ciao.

where can i find a list of the color codes like 78 43 34 34 lol ????????????????????????
