Sound() function in Visual C++ 6.0 by Microsoft

[Buu]

I recently discovered that the compiler for VC++ 6 does not support clrscr or gotoxy any longer. Do you know where I can download a header file that would include the old sound() or delay() functions?

Perhaps the problem is that you are trying to compile Pascal code in a C++ compiler? If you go to www.borland.com and get Delphi it'll probably support those functions dandy. If you still want to program in C/C++ and not Pascal, then you will have to go through the lovely Windows API and I suggest you look up the following functions in MSDN: PlaySound, Beep, Sleep, then the following Console functions for drawing on the screen: GetStdHandle, SetConsoleCursorPosition, SetConsoleTextAttribute

hmmm I remember, using clrscr to clear the console screen in Borland and I noticed it didn't work in VC++ ... I just said oh well and wrote it off as a difference.
