Not much help I'm afraid. But, wrapping your field statement in just enough
code to run it gives me a screen which behaves as one would expect. No extra
arrows required. FWIW, we're on 8.19C4 & 5.5 pp7 here. I've found problems
like this are usually related to terminal settings rather than Quick. Try my
code straight from the colon. Could it be that you're having problems after
returning from a famous block mode application which leaves some stray
terminal settings set to something Quick doesn't like?
Regards,
JWP
