Yes, but it is platform dependent. We need more information. What`s your:
- Target platform
- Development environment

iF ITS a TURBO OR BORLAND C++ Compiler then dos.h is
the header file..
There is a inbuilt function in dos.h which cnan not
only chnage the directory but also help in
creating,removing the driectory...

Unfortunately, I don`t use both compilers. And I doubt you can call Windows
API with Turbo C.
IIRC, look up <dos.h> in your Turbo C`s documentation.
IMHO, I thing you should ditch Turbo C and use a 32-bit compiler. Many
32-bit compilers running on Windows can have the full assess of the entire
Win32 APIs. Even if you`re not using the APIs, you get a better compiler
free from 16-bit limitations.
BTW, the Windows API for setting current directory is:
SetCurrentDirectory().
