This can NOT happen, on any SMS system. Screen access always has to be implemented using the iow.xtop call (can only be in assembler or c or some other language interface, not Sbasic) and it converts the operation into an atomic action. Meaning that the code can not be intererrupted by changes of screen resolution or mode or job switches which (un)cover part of the screen etc. Joachim
