If they are Wyse50 then } this may well be most of the problem as they have a 'cookie glitch' } 'feature' which can cause odd display problems. } } The other advice I saw looked good. You could also try different } TERMCAP files - from '/etc' and '$INFORMIXDIR/etc'. You can also go into setup mode on WYSE terminals and mess with the ENHANCE attribute which affects this as well. cheers j. _____________________________________________________________________________ Jack Parker - Hewlett Packard, DMD/IS Boise, Idaho, USA jparker@hpbs3645.boi.hp.com _____________________________________________________________________________ Lysdexics Untie! _____________________________________________________________________________ Any opinions expressed herein are my own and not those of my employers. _____________________________________________________________________________
