You can use this entry to prevent HostExplorer from updating the Numeric Field and Operator Selectable Field in the Operator Information Area (OIA) each time you move the cursor. By default, the system updates the Numeric Field and Operator Selectable Field indicators in the OIA every time you move the cursor. If this causes too much overhead on your machine, for example, cursor movement appears too slow, disable this option.

To prevent HostExplorer from updating the Numeric field:

Browse to the Profile directory where the user files are stored on your machine. To access the User Files folder, double-click the User Files shortcut in the Hummingbird Connectivity program group.

1. In a text editor, open the profile that you want to edit (it may be in another directory).
2. Add the following line to the [PROFILE] section.
