Hi Plinio,

I'm not getting any error message. It's the result of the command that's unusual.

For example - working from the command windown with Screen.FontName = "Courier New":

@0,0 Say "0123456789" will write that 10 character string to the top-left corner of the screen.

You would image that, in order to clear the first 3 characters, you would type @0,0 Clear to 0,2, wouldn't you? What you have to enter is @0,0 Clear to 1,3.


Regards,

Liam
