	I have a question regarding ansi cursor addressing in an AVIO
Presentation Space;

	I am writing a program to display text that includes ansi
sequences to do color and cursor addressing.  I can't seem to get
ANSI cursor addressing to kick in if you will...

	My program is based on the AVIO example(s) in the
"Programming the OS/2 PM" book from microsoft press.  I have done/tried/
am using etc... the following:

	1) Using COMPAQ OS/2 1.1
	2)  Have DEVICE=\os2\ansi.sys in config.sys file 
	3) Using VioWrtTTY command.

	When I display text, the ansi escape sequences go away, as they
should, however, the text is displayed at the current cursor position.

Question: Am I missing something/Doing something stupid or is there a known
	Bug with ANSI cursor addressing with AVIO under os2 1.1???

Any help/ideas will be/are appreciated.

						Thanks
