oh yeah, and here goes my first problem:
i had to make this program that acts as a sort of password validator. what i had to do in one part of its code was to enter a password which is displayed as ***** on screen but the chracters are processed. i used getch() and it worked in turbo c++ but sumhow visual c++ does not support it. even though now i have submitted the assignment, this question has been sort of bothering me. any suggestions? is it coz of the compiler as i think getch() is a c function..dunno...

getch() is a non-standard function by Borland therefore not all compilers support it.
