The MLE scrolls the text vertically and horizontally as needed to place the character in the upper-left corner of the MLE window. Parameter Description ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── lOffChar Low and high word of mp1. Specifies the offset (number of characters from the beginning of the text) of the character to be placed in the upper-left corner of the MLE window. Return Value The return value is always TRUE. Comments If the value specified by the lOffChar parameter is greater than the total number of characters in the MLE, the first visible character is set one beyond the last character in the MLE.
