SETRC()
Sets line and column for the CA-Clipper cursor
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
SETRC([<nRow>], [<nColumn>]) --> cNull
Arguments
<nRow> Designates the new cursor line. The default is the current
BIOS line.
<nColumn> Designates the new cursor column. The default is the
current BIOS column.
Returns
SETRC() always returns a null string.
Description
This function resets the internal value that CA-Clipper returns for the
current ROW() line and COL() column. The cursor automatically moves to
this new location at the same time. When output is not through
CA-Clipper, the CA-Clipper internal values for ROW() and COL() may
deviate from the actual position returned in the BIOS. If you implement
SETRC without a parameter, then the position returned from the BIOS is
set within CA-Clipper.
Note
. Negative values or those too large for the line or column, are
corrected automatically.
Examples
. Set the BIOS line and column in CA-Clipper and display:
SETRC()
? ROW(), COL()
. The BIOS line and the CA-Clipper column are used:
SETRC(, COL())
? ROW(), COL()
. The CA-Clipper line and the BIOS column are used:
SETRC( ROW())
? ROW(), COL()
