Re:How to write running Letters on the screen
Thanks for the response.
I am using C++Builder 5.0 (I just realized that I may be in wrong group). I
would say it is GUI application with a single running letter on the top line
and left edge. Then there will be a couple of buttons on the bottom.

You need to be more specific. Do you mean a single letter?
Or do you mean a phrase or sentence? Like a marquis or banner?
Can you give an example?
Also, what kind of program is this? DOS? Win16? EasyWin?
Win32? Console? GUI? Which compiler & version?
When you say "on the dialog", what specifically are you referring to?
A simple DOS example may be something like this:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <dos.h>
int main()
{
char temp, banner[] = ".........Hello, World!........";
int i;
printf("\n");
for(i=0; i<60; ++i)
{
printf("%s\r", banner);
delay(250);
temp = banner[0];
memmove(banner, banner+1, sizeof banner - 2);
banner[strlen(banner)-1] = temp;
}
return 0;
}
