current window position

hi everyone, my name is Atique and i am new to the forum so my regards to all, i'm working in vc++ 6.0 and i need a function that gives the current console window position, and a function to set the position of the console,

i have just covered oop form my uni and do not know much about windows programming, but someone suggested that it is concerned with windows programming,

thanks for your precious time.

Code:

#include <windows.h>

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    HWND conwin = GetConsoleWindow();
    RECT conrect;
    if (!conwin || !GetWindowRect(conwin, &conrect))
    {
        cerr << "Error" << endl;
        return 1;
    }//if

    cout << "(" << conrect.left << "," << conrect.top << ")-("
        << conrect.right << "," << conrect.bottom << ")" << endl;
   
    int width = conrect.right - conrect.left;
    int height = conrect.bottom - conrect.top;
    cout << "W=" << width << endl;
    cout << "H=" << height << endl;
   
    cout << "Moving to 0,0...." << endl;
    MoveWindow(conwin, 0, 0, width, height, TRUE);
   
    return 0;
