I can not get the textattr(), textcolor() or textbackground() functions in the conio.h to work in my C++ programs. Can anyone tell me why. I am using Visual Studio Pro to compile and write these programs. Any help would be great.

Add the following line to your CONFIG.NT command to enable ANSI command sequences:

device=c:\winnt\system32\ansi.sys
