    Please explain...

    Is this a console or a GUI app? Are you using an edit box or simply displaying the caret?

    for a console app, use ansi control codes
    for cursor position -- escape [ row ; col H

    Code:
    char esc = 27;
printf("%d%s",esc,"[1;1H");

    Yep a console app. Your answer just prints '27[1;1H', jim.
