The only thing I tend to jump on (repeatedly and fantically, with an
evil glint in my eye) is insulting and arrogant postings, especially
in reply to correct and good answers.

The observation of the original poster is correct: there is no
"graphics.h". And your own obsrevation is correct as well. This is
a non standard header, and a very *compiler specific* one at that.
I don't know of only one compiler that has a "graphics.h" and the
corresponding libraries. The assignment of the original poster
should have read: "program graphics using graphics.h and the Borland-C
compiler".
The experts for discussing this subject more thoroughly and for
providing more detailed help can be found in the following

That's the problem: they can't, because it's not a Microsoft file.
What they could tell you, though, is that Visual-C 1.5 has a header
file called "GRAPH.C", which serves a similar purpose, but offers
different functions.
