    Console Applications - Clear Screen?

    I am building a console application (for school). I am displaying a menu, and upon a user selection another menu will be displayed. Is there a way to clear the screen (eg. cls - DOS) .

    Thanks.

    Here is a C# class that give you more console functionality. You should be able to get the info you need from it because it implements a clearscreen method.

    forgot to add the link:
