Return the column number of the cursor position (Screen class)


This property either gets the column number where the cursor is currently positioned, or it sets the column number for the cursor position.

Syntax

%currentNumber = screen:CursorColumn screen:CursorColumn = newNumber

Syntax terms

%num
A numeric variable or expression for the column number.
%screen
A reference to an instance of a Screen object.

Usage notes

Although you can set an absolute position for the cursor using CursorColumn and CursorRow, it is generally more useful to use the ScreenField SetCursor function to move the cursor to a particular field, independent of its absolute location on the screen.
