I still have issue with an index built on one S1) field not displaying 
the correct data when the index is used in a browse and the browse is 
requested to display *s1

It will always display the first *s1 data on first display.  Move the 
highlight up and back down to the same position and the screen display 
will then display the correct data on that record.

It only breaks when the index key for the browse happens to hit a second 
occurance in the assocations.

Odd but how do I tell my customer just pageup and pagedown and it will 
be right.

On one project I was able to do a PUSHKEY "[UTAB][DTAB]" before 
displaying the browse and it looked fine.  That does not always work.
