 RC> You need to go into "Doorway" mode to use the arrow keys.
 RC> The command is SHIFT-+   (shift key and plus key)
I have managed to get things working by changing the key configuration -
see other messages - but gave the above a try to see if it worked.  It
is very easy to switch to doorway mode in QmodemPro for Win 95 - you
just click on the doorway button.  No luck, the arrow keys did not work
until I changed configuration so that the second "[" is a "O", e.g ^[[A
is ^[OA.
No problems now - but thanks for the response (& happy new year).
