Hello Sidd,

I've tried with and without conio.h, and the results is not what I
expected. Maybe I've have totally misunderstood what these functions
(getch( ) getche( )) can do for me... . 
Please try these little program (and of cause if you've not already have
tried other more advanced programs) and see what results you get. The line
in 'cout' don't show before I press a character.

=========================================
#include <iostream.h>
#include <conio.h>

main()
{
  char Ch;
  cout << "Write a character: ";
  Ch = getch();
  cout << endl << "You wrote: " << Ch << endl;

  cout << "Write a new character: ";
  Ch = getche();
  cout << endl << "You wrote: " << Ch << endl;
}
=========================================
