Hehe, sorry....  My bad....

I spent 2 hours yesterday, trying to copy and paste from the console
window to notepad, where it just failed like 99% of the time....
2 hours later i remembered you can select Edit Mode in the console 
properties..

I did a google search i found this sample C from Microsoft...

I'm guessing if i can do it in the console window, Windows
must have a closely followed or similar command  it uses to do it.
Heres a link, anyway... I hope it helps.... (doubt it will)  :)

/*********************************************************************
* FUNCTION: resizeConBufAndWindow(HANDLE hConsole, SHORT xSize,      *
*                                 SHORT ySize)                       *
*                                                                    *
* PURPOSE: resize both the console output buffer and the console     *
*          window to the given x and y size parameters               *
*                                                                    *
* INPUT: the console output handle to resize, and the required x and *
*        y size to resize the buffer and window to.                  *
*                                                                    *
* COMMENTS: Note that care must be taken to resize the correct item  *
*           first; you cannot have a console buffer that is smaller  *
*           than the console window.                                 *
