Ken  - I'm not seeing that on 5.014.  If I just end right after the 
lookup -, my @ud and @ub are unchanged - on the screen or when I go 
back to the browse.  I wouldn't think you are in update mode from @key 
unless before the end you do a screen or popup command.  I even tried 
a display command (by itself) and it still did not change @ud/@ub.
