Hi all,

I've got the next entry field in my program:
ENTRY-FIELD, USING MULTIPLY VAR-X
LINE 1, COLUMN 1, SIZE 100, LINES 20,
MAX-LINES=500, VSCROL-BAR, 3-D,
NO-AUTOSEL, USE-RETURN.

Is there a possibility when i'm accepting this entry field, to retrieve the line and position within this accept. So, when i'm accepting the third line of var-x and i'm on the 10th column of var-x, i can retrieve line 3, position 10?

Thanx for the information.

entry-name, ENTRY-FIELD, USING MULTIPLY VAR-X
LINE 1, COLUMN 1, SIZE 100, LINES 20,
MAX-LINES=500, VSCROL-BAR, 3-D,
NO-AUTOSEL, USE-RETURN.


inquire entry-name, cursor-row = var-row.
inquire entry-name, cursor-col = var-col.

i hope this was your question, my english is not the best :)
