  * indicates a required field

If you use the DM statement to directly invoke a SAS/AF PROGRAM entry, the cursor will be placed on the command line rather than on the field that is referenced in the CURSOR statement or on the field with the CURSOR attribute. Here is an example of using the DM statement directly:

  dm 'af c=libref.catalog.entryname.program' af;

• Create a dummyPROGRAM entry with a NONDISPLAY PROTECTED window field. In the SOURCE panel, code the following:

init: call execcmd('end;'); return; main: return; term: return;

• In the INIT section of the program that uses the CURSOR statement, code the following:

init: call display('dummy.program'); cursor field; return;

• In the INIT section of the program that uses the CURSOR statement, code the following:

init: call execcmd('backward'); cursor field; return;
