RE: Cursor positioning

["Hatzenbeler, Tim" <thatzenbeler@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If I plead and beg of you, could you please post your code for RtvFldLoc.  I
have been looking for that functionality for a long time to add some
flexibilty to my cursor positioning...  I have used tables, indicators and
of course hard coded x,y values... But to have a dynamic procedure that
knows the location of my fields on the screen would be great.
