No doubt because your DOS screen dimensions are different from
XyWrite's default screen length and screen width settings (SL and
SW). You can fix it by changing the Xy defaults to correspond to
your DOS settings. Command MODE CON at the DOS prompt to see your
screen dimensions (Lines = Screen Length in XyWrite, Columns =
Screen Width). Then, in XyWrite, command D SL=xx and D SW=yy, where
xx and yy and the DOS values.

I changed them in settings.dfl and that did it. Thank you. You are so generous with your knowledge; I appreciate that. FW
