The following is my code, what is wrong with it ? #include #include main() { int test=3; char destination; void *des = &destination; /* capture screen character */ test = gettext(10, 10, 20, 20, des); printf("gettext test = %d.\n", test); printf("press any key to continue...\n"); getch(); clrscr(); getch(); /* putting back screen character */ test = puttext(10, 10, 20, 20, des); printf("puttext test = %d.\n", test); } Thankx for helping me out.
