DIRECT CURSOR-CONTROLLED ACCESS TO MULTIPLE APPLICATION PROGRAMS ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method for navigating between and within application programs resident in a computer system is disclosed. Two or more programs may be optionally linked together in an arbitrary sequence to form a chain. A user may invoke a function resident in the computer system to directly access windows in which programs in the chain are running in a sequence determined by the order in which the user opens the windows in a given session. The method for traversing between programs in the chain involves a uniform, short procedure dependent on positioning of a pointing cursor within an active window and, for example, pressing a mouse button. Further access to data within any application program is available by following a procedure which, although slightly different from that used to navigate between programs, is still uniform and short when compared with that normally used to traverse application programs. .
