Hi Ralph,

This question has been answered many times:

http://mia.openworldlearning.org/mwforum/msg00786.html

http://mia.openworldlearning.org/mwforum/msg00742.html

To find those entries I just typed "setpos" in the
Search box here:

ALL questions are welcome, but I also want to make members
aware of the vast amount of useful information that's already
in the MWForum archives (indexed by Google :)
