1. there is a format for setting a cursor position. ck the manual.
2. there is no eib field that will tell you this, you have to keep track of that yourself. most people use the dfhcommarea or a queue item to keep-track of processing performed for a user/terminal. |

Hi,
You may use following to check CURSOR position:
| Code: |
DIVIDE EIBCPOSN BY 80 GIVING WS-ROW REMAINDER IN WS-COL.
ADD 1 TO WS-ROW.
ADD 1 TO WS-COL. |
Now, WS-ROW contains the ROW number and WS-COL contains the Column number of the cursor. You can manipulate it as per your requirement.
80 is maximum column number of screen. You may change it in accordance to your screen size.
Generally people use EIBCALEN for checking whether its first time or not. It's value is 0 if first time. It represents the length of COMMAREA. Thus once you processing is complete move some data to commarea to change EIBCALEN.
Cheers!  |

| There is 'IC' parameter in the DFHMDF to serve your purpose. |
