COL()

Syntax:     COL()

Purpose:    To return the current screen column position of the cursor.

Returns:    An integer numeric value.

Usage:      COL() is used when you want to position the cursor to a
            column relative to the current column position.  COL() is
            generally used in combination with ROW() and all variations
            of the @ command.  In particular, you use it and ROW() to
            create screen position-independent procedures or functions
            where you pass the upper left row and column as parameters.

Library:    CLIPPER.LIB
