Steve was over seeing us there but someone changed the abilty for guests to post (not me, though I advised it with all the damn spammers we were getting before I found a way to play a trick on them ; -  ) ) .)
I just ran the code in QuickBasic 4.5 and it acts differently.

Screen 0: When Cstart = 1 and 2 there is a slight difference in the size of the cursor at the top. When Cstart hits 3 the cursor jumps to half size just like in QB64. When Cstart hits 29 and 30 the cursor gets very small and then to a single scan line.

Screen 1 and 2: The cursor is replaced with random ASCII characters.

Screens 9 through 13: When Cstart =4 the cursor jumps to quarter size and then back to full size when 5 is reached.

I tested this out in QB4.5 because I was sure years ago I was able to have more control over the cursor size than what QB64 allows. It's still odd behavior in QB4.5 with slightly more control though.
