  ****************************************************************
  A 3270 based BMS application issued a RECEIVE MAP and used a
  field's attribute byte to determine the presence of the cursor
  within a particular map field. If the cursor was present then
  the x'02' (DFHBMCUR) bit of the byte was set.  However when run
  via the 3270 Web Bridge (DFHWBTTC) the DFHBMCUR bit was not set
  even though the cursor was in the corresponding field.
  

Problem conclusion

• DFHWBTCC has been modified to correctly set the DFHBMCUR bit
  when the cursor is present in the corresponding input field.
