This Vertical Cursor Positioning command moves the cursor to a new line in the same column position.

?& a # R

 

 

#

= Number of Rows

 

Default

=

NA

 

Range

=

–32767 to 32767 (valid to 4 decimal places)

 

A value field (#) with a plus sign (+) indicates the new position is

 

downward from and relative to the current cursor position; a minus

 

sign (–) indicates the new position is upward from and relative to the

 

current cursor position. No sign indicates the new position is absolute

 

from the top margin. The top position, defined by the top margin, is 0

 

and the bottom position is determined by the bottom of the logical

 

page.

 

 

 

 

Note

Since the top margin can be changed using a printer command, the

 

physical location of the point (0,0) may change. This affects the cursor

 

position on the page.

 

 

 

 

If a request is made for a location outside the printer’s logical page, the current active position (CAP) is moved to the appropriate logical page limit.
