How do you dynamically set the CURSOR position to a
specific field?

Answer Posted / the ancient zio

OR.... you specify CURSOR(cposn) on the SEND MAP api
command. cposn is defined as 80 * (row - 1) + column - 1.
This way you may even position the cursor on a literal, in
the middle of a field or even in a position where there's
nothing. Might come handy in some occasion.
