You have to use the input array functions and disallow input. To disallow input set options as: options insert key CONTROL-Z, delete key CONTROL-Z (Control-z or some other key you'd never use) Your program must track the cursor position as well as the array position and the screen array position prior to "giving control." -- gburnore@netcom.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How you look depends on where you go. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
