I would be really greatful if someone could point me in the right direction. So far I have a program which reads in a series of currencies from a text file. The user inputs a number 1 to 9 and this corresponds to a particular rate in the text file i.e. 1 =British pound etc. I was wondering if it is at all possible to highlight the users selection i.e. if they input 1 highlight the text British Pound, input 2 highlight the text Euro. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I presume it would go in either one of these functions but im not entirely sure.
void convert(void) { gotoxy(20,17); printf("Select currency to convert from "); from=(getch()-48); while(from<1 || from>9) from=(getch()-48); gotoxy(20,17); printf(" "); gotoxy(20,17); printf("Select currency to convert to "); to=(getch()-48); while(to<1 || to>9) to=(getch()-48); gotoxy(20,17); printf(" "); gotoxy(20,17); printf("Enter amount: "); amount=gfloat(); gotoxy(20,19); printf("%1.2f",(amount/rates[from-1])*rates[to-1]); pause(); } void read_file(float *rates) { char buff[80]; int i; i=0; while(fgets(buff,80,fpin)!=NULL) { // x y gotoxy(17,7+i); printf("%d %s",i+1,buff); gotoxy(42,7+i); printf("%d %s",i+1,buff); if(fgets(buff,80,fpin)!=NULL) rates[i++]=(float)atof(buff); } fclose(fpin); }
