Weird fiePro Behavior

You can have the same field on a screen 2 or more times.
You can have one or several of the field instances protected.
You can include the field in the cursor path, as long as one of the instances is
unprotected.
But you can't have a statement in your processing such as:
screen ,field_number
unless the unprotected instance is higher than the protected one on the screen.

Why does filePro allow a field to be included in the cursor path and then ignore
the contents of the cursor path when the screen statement is encountered?

I can't answer your question.

However, you might consider using a protected dummy fields to display the value
of the real unprotected field.  Then it won't matter where you place the real
field on the screen.
