Syntax

'Declaration
Public MustOverride Property CursorColumn As Integer

public abstract int CursorColumn { get; set; }

public:
virtual property int CursorColumn {
    int get () abstract;
    void set (int value) abstract;
}

/** @property */
public abstract int get_CursorColumn ()

/** @property */
public abstract void set_CursorColumn (int value)

public abstract function get CursorColumn () : int

public abstract function set CursorColumn (value : int)

Remarks

Legal values range from zero through the value of the Columns property. (See the DisplayText method for a note on the interpretation of CursorColumn = Columns.)

The Open and CreateWindow methods initialize CursorColumn to 0 (zero), and it is updated when the application sets the CurrentWindow property or calls the ClearText, DisplayTextAt, or DestroyWindow methods. CursorColumn is also updated when the application calls the DisplayText method, if the CursorUpdate property is set to true.

Accessing CursorColumn may cause a PosControlException to be thrown with the following ErrorCode.

Value	Meaning
Illegal	CursorColumn was set to a value that is not valid.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread-safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread-safe.
