BUG: Cursor from INPUT Statement Incorrectly Displayed (57373)






This article was previously published under Q57373

SYMPTOMS

The cursor incorrectly displays in a compiled program when using the INPUT statement in Microsoft QuickBasic Version 1.00 for the Apple Macintosh.

During INPUT, a blinking cursor is supposed to be displayed showing the place where the next character typed will appear. However, in a compiled application, the cursor does appear on the screen indicating where the next character be will placed, but it is not flashing. When you start typing your input, the cursor disappears completely. It then reappears (without flashing) and disappears as you type in more input. This sequence is repeated as you type.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in Microsoft QuickBasic for the Macintosh Version 1.00. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
