Answer / kunti
If you wish to position the cursor to a specified field,
you can use the MARK option,
eg.
INPUT
MARK *#MAP.#ACTION
USING MAP 'IVCLNTM1'
and and to position to a
particular position within a specified field, you use the
MARK POSITION option.
DEFINE DATA LOCAL
1 #A (A10)
1 #B (N4)
1 #C (N4)
END-DEFINE
*
INPUT (AD=M) #A #B #C
IF #A = ’ ’
COMPUTE #B = #B + #C
RESET #C
REINPUT FULL ’Enter a value’ MARK POSITION 5 IN *#A
END-IF
END

Answer / satya
You may use #MARK and pass value POS(field-name) to it.
Like below,
#MARK := POS(field-name)
POS(field-name) will give you current position of this
variable on the map
