Parameters

  • cWindowName
    Specifies the name of the window whose mouse-pointer column position MCOL( ) returns.

    If you omit cWindowName and there is no active user-defined window, MCOL( ) returns the mouse pointer's column position in the main Visual FoxPro window. If you omit cWindowName and there is an active user-defined window, MCOL( ) returns the mouse pointer's column position in the active user-defined window. MCOL( ) returns –1 if the mouse pointer is positioned outside the user-defined window or if no mouse driver is loaded and there is no output window.
