CTRL+UP and CTRL+DOWN ARROW Keys No Longer Scroll the Screen (23388)






This article was previously published under Q23388

SUMMARY

CTRL+UP ARROW and CTRL+DOWN ARROW do not scroll the screen in QB.EXE in QuickBasic Version 3.00, but they do in QuickBasic Versions 2.00, 2.01, 4.00, 4.00b, 4.50, in the QB.EXE editor that is included with Microsoft Basic Compiler Versions 6.00 and 6.00b for MS-DOS, and in the QBX.EXE editor of Microsoft Basic Professional Development System (PDS) Version 7.00 for MS-DOS.

Changes were made in the QuickBasic Version 3.00 editor to allow Superkey support; support for CTRL+UP ARROW and CTRL+DOWN ARROW was removed during this change. In the non-3.00 product versions above, these keys successfully scroll the screen down or up one line at a time.
