I have seen occasional messages concerning MOREROWS and how to execute it. I understand it can give you an increased display area but what I do not know is the functional value of this larger display area. So here I go.... 1. How much can morerows increase the display? 2. Is the size variable? If so what are the upper and lower limits and how are they invoked? 3. How does an application know the larger display is available? 4. Can most existing application take advantage of it? 5. Is it restricted to/prohibited from any of the existing display modes (320 x 200 ==>> 640 x 400)? 6. What advantages can I gain using it with with output windows generated in Basic programs? 7. What other 'Intuitively Obvious' points am I missing? Anything you can tell me will be more than I currently know, so I thank you for your consideration and response! Respectfully, Jerry Whitman - Keeper of FishXref and FishCon.
