Location Operation
When working with forms, you sometimes need to know the precise row and column location of a place in your window. For example, to specify a fixed position for a pop-up form with the StartRow and StartColumn attributes, you must know the row and column designation of that place in your window.
The Location operation on the Form Layout frame displays the current row and column location of the cursor, relative to the boundaries of your window, regardless of the placement and orientation of the form.
To find the row and column location of any place in your window:
1. On the Form Layout frame, place the cursor at the chosen spot.
2. Choose the Location operation.
VIFRED marks the cursor location with a plus sign (+) and displays a message giving the row and column location.
