So what is my option ? Live with it , or wait for next release ? or .... ??? so long Erich
The CURSOR IS clause has nothing to do with the mouse................... very helpful I will keep this in mind ........and work straight away Thanks Erich

Thank you Gentlemen for all the details As I understand Brian AND/OR is possible .... fine and simple and nice. And I see all the advantages of ALSO But it is not documented (so far as I read ) So my concern is, if I use it more often will it still work in later releases. I ran into it simply replacing a number of IFs by WHEN without checking the manual. So it looks like one of those undocumented features which disappear some day and you get surprised by an error recompiling older code. So my clearer...
EVALUATE TRUE WHEN statuscrt = 1020 AND CSRLL > 10 AND PTEX13 = SPACES I used that and later I read in the manual that ALSO is the name of the game and not AND surprise 1 the compiler does not complain surprise 2 it works question should I better go to ALSO Erich

Thanks Simon, I learned 1. mouse and CURSOR_IS can be used both in the same program 2. If I do not set the cursor on a new screen it will pop up the position where the mouse was on the screen which was accepted before, which means the automatic - first input field of screen - is probably switched off by the mouse function WHEN "02" MOVE 15 TO CSRLL *> must !!!! MOVE 05 TO CSRCC *> otherwise Cursor is where mouse was *> on previous screen ACCEPT FORM2 END-ACCEPT END-EVALUATE This is ok for me
pdcurses I understand is for windows my cobc -info shows ncursesw can anybody out there say if it is ok ?
