my version of amospro(the AF one) won't accept 0 or 1

Tried that but still limited movement so I inserted and loop to print the
mouse co-ordinates and found that although I opened a screen of 640x256 the
mouse co-ordinates were top left 124,40 and bottom right 448,294 giving a
display of 320x256 for the mouse. I've fed these co-ords in and all is
well. Many thanks for your speedy response it's much appreciated.

I wish you well in the future with commercial stuff. Had Ocean released your
James Bond a few years ago as an official tie-in they perhaps wouldn't have
been lumbered with such a bad reputation for crappy film tie-ins like Total
Recall etc.
Many thanks too to Paolo Rinaldi who also helped with this problem.
