Description

The SET BLINK ON command enables the associated field to blink when a user presses the [HELP] key to obtain a pop-up menu. This has been added as an enhancement to your user work surfaces. This command allows the optional logical expression <expL> to be evaluated. If a value of .T. is returned, BLINK is set ON. If a value of .F. is returned, BLINK is set OFF. Note that the <expL> should be enclosed in round brackets. The default setting for the BLINK command is OFF.

Example
