Hello all --

Can I program dBase to accept the arrow keys as input?  My objective is
to have my menu selections highlighted, and if the user presses the up
or down arrow keys ( <esc>[A  and  <esc>[B ) the previous or next menu
item becomes highlighted.

In an unrelated item, my VGA color monitor supposedly has a palette of
256,000 colors.  Is there any way (in dBase) for me to tap into this,
or am I limited to the primaries?
