Let me see if I can do better here. I have 18 words of data. I want to display the first word on the top line in the window, second value on the second line, so forth and so on down to the 18th value on the 18th line.

Then I want to start back at the top when the new data set is transmitted. So first value on the first line, second on the second line, down to the bottom.

The way it works for me now, is once the screen fills, it just scrolls, so I am just seeing data roll on by. I can stop(disconnect) then look back but of course the data has less value to me then.

I looked through an ASCII chart, I don't think there is a control character for "home" or "clearscreen". After all how would that have been used back in the teletype days?
