Win 1.5 Pascal - CRT Unit - Window positioning

Does anyone know how to modify the CRT unit so I can place my screen/window in
the middle of my display. Currently, the screen/window is positioned in the
upper left corner.

In the help section it stated th change the following X & Y coordinates. I
changed them but did not work.

const
WindowOrg: TPoint = { CRT window origin }
(X: 10; Y: 15);

Does anyone know if Win !.5 pascal will function under windows 98?
thanks

Re:Win 1.5 Pascal - CRT Unit - Window positioning

The following program compiled in TPW 1.5 on Windows 98 puts a CRT box in the
centre of my screen.

program Centre;
uses
WinCrt;
begin
WindowOrg.X :=0200;
WindowOrg.Y :=0100;
Writeln('Centre test');
end.

The WindowOrg variables must be changed before the first IO. TPW 1.5 seems to work
perfectly well in Windows98.
