Hi Raymond,
I'd have to look that up to get you the answer, but I think that it moves the
cursor back. I could be totally wrong about that.

Hi Jim,
I see what you mean. But your Restore is not in reverse order :)
And looking at your code, when I use the RestoreCursor after I activate the
PC Cursor, it will not move the PC Cursor back to its saved location, but
only removes the saved information from the stack?
Cheers,
Raymond
