Description

When SET MOUSE is ON the cursor may be moved to any screen position on a form by using the cursor keys.

If SET MOUSE is ON and SET NAVIGATE is ON, pressing the [RETURN] key moves the cursor to the nearest field or menu item. When SET MOUSE is OFF the cursor is restricted to movement in the defined @...GET statements of the current screen format. By default SET MOUSE is OFF.

This command allows the optional logical expression <expL> to be evaluated. If a value of .T. is returned MOUSE is set ON. If a value of .F. is returned MOUSE is set OFF.
