# VIEW PRINT Statement

#### Purpose:

To set the boundaries of the screen text window.

#### Syntax:

    VIEW PRINT [topline TO bottomline]

#### Comments:

VIEW PRINT without topline and bottomline parameters initializes the whole screen area as the text window. The whole screen area consists of lines 1 to 24; by default, line 25 is not used.

Statements and functions that operate within the defined text window include CLS, LOCATE, PRINT, and SCREEN.

The screen editor will limit functions such as scroll and cursor movement to the text window.
