Abstract
A process for controlling cursor-scrollable display information for a plurality of dependent workstations from a single workstation controller, including the steps of prestoring format tables and scrollable panel areas for each dependent workstation in the workstation controller, processing cursor movement keystroke signals within the workstation controller to cause scrolling to occur for any dependent workstation when a cursor movement keystroke is made in that workstation when the cursor is displayed at a beginning or an end position of a scrollable area.
