] Everytime the program is executed it turns on the cursor constantly
] so that the screen-output is slowed down drastically. Is there a way
] to undo or prevent this?
I have created two commands for cursor control in dBase II in the past. One
command is called curon and the other one curoff. You can find both the
commands attached to this message. You can use them by placing the files in
your working directory after which you can execute them from dbase with 'do
curon' or 'do curoff' to switch the cursor respectively on or off.
They are especially usefull when you start to program your own applications in
dbase. You can use the curon command to switch the cursor on before prompting
for input and you can use the curoff command after having read the input and
before sending the results to the screen.
I hope these tiny programs help you a little further with your first steps
into the wonderfull world of dBase II.
