Rather than using the system( "PAUSE" ) command, have you tried using the 
getch() function?

Try that and see if it works, especially since you don't seem worried about 
portability and your focus is on DOS/Windows users.

If getch() doesn't work, it may be because you have a '\n' somewhere in the 
code that is getting read into the getch() function call, so add a second 
getch() call and see if that helps.

thanx, that did it.  i actually had to try getchar() though because for some 
reason MSVC++ freaked when i tried getch().  (i found that suggestion in one 
of my books on C).
