Referring to the documenation you will have to use that function and SetConsoleWindowInfo to get the effect you want. Basically SetConsoleScreenBufferSize sets the size for the console and SetConsoleWindowInfo sets the size for the window containing the console. The window size can't be bigger that the console size. If the console size is bigger than the window, you will end up with scrollbars. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dllproc/base/setconsolescreenbuffersize.asp http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dllproc/base/setconsolescreenbuffersize.asp
You might want the get function as well: GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dllproc/base/setconsolescreenbuffersize.asp When in doubt about the Microsoft API see the MSDN. -Chris -Chris On Thu, Jul 14, 2005 at 11:48:09PM +0300, Sheeps United wrote: > "Peter Hansen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message > news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Which Windows API call did you try using?
