Termcap Program Needed for Visual 310 for vi Usage

My department recently purchased Visual 310 terminals.  Many
of the writers and editors use vi, and have found that attempts
to use dd or any other delete functions scramble the screen
output, requiring the extra step of a ^l to redraw it.  

Supposedly, the vi310 emulates the DEC vt100.  The manual,
however, indicates that DEC emulation can only be accomplished
on the "lesser" model (the vi300).  

I was recently supplied with a termcap program for the vi310
which, when installed, creates even more on-screen problems
in vi than does the vt100 "emulation."

Any help would be appreciated; and I'll attempt to answer
whatever questions I can.
