I can not seem to figure out how to move the cursor to a specific location
on the output screen in a console application. I want to position the cursor
for user input.

Any thoughts on the best way to do this with MS C++ standard v6? I seen to
remember their was a way to to it with a locate(r,c) macro but i can not
find my notes from last semester.
