RE: Position Cursor on a Display File

["Rick DuVall" <R_C_DuVall@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Steve,

        I ended up sending it as an attachment to midrange-L because there 
seemed
to be a lot of interest in it and you didn't give me an email address.  It
was stopped by the list server because the attachment was too big.  So if
you will send me your email address I will send it to you.

Regards
Rick

Hi Rick,

This is not Joe....

However, I would be interested in seeing your QdfRtvFd wrapper if you do not
mind. It will be helpful in the project I am currently working on.

Thanks

Steve Brault
