>I have a question. In a converted FoxPro DOS program, we wanted to know if there were any commands to change the cursor size in the @GET with a READ. The cursor is hard to see.

There was a function, once upon a time, which would set the cursor to underline, halfblock or whole block, but that was in DOS days, and I can't find it anymore. Nowadays, you get the insertion point, the thin vertical bar which will push all the text to the right when you type a character.

Depending on what you used for conversion... you may just tweak your color scheme, perhaps, to make the bar stand out more, or Set ReadBorder Off so the insertion point wouldn't be stuck to the border (and thus invisible).
