I am having a particular issues with the -DU, -DL, and -DE arguments on 
the *clerk line.
I need to have control over lines 21-24 for prompting and I need to be 
able to prompt users when the cursor enters or leaves a field.  I also 
have many browse windows that use lines 21-24 for prompting.
I can not seem to find a *clerk menu option that allows this.
-DE @entsel works fine, browse window prompts are there, but no prompts 
@wef or @wlf
-DU @wef and @wlf works, browse window prompts are there, but no @entsel 
control
-DL @entsel work fine, @wef or @wlf prompts work, but my browse window 
prompts are gone and
    replaced with this "Use  PgDn   PgUp -Move Cursor  Enter -Choose 
Record  Del -Cancel" prompt.
I need a *clerk flag that allows me to;
Control @entsel, if it is there show the prompts, if not show default 
prompts.
Control prompts for @wef, if I have a prompt, show it, if not, show the 
default ESC ESC to record,
        DEL - Cancel. We should have an option to show or not show the 
F6 - Browse prompt.
And lastly NO default prompt for any browse window.  Everyone using a 
browse window knows they want specific keystrokes for specific actions.  
No one benefits from the PgDn PgUp stuff.
If I am missing something, please enlighten me.
Many thanks,
Richard D. Williams
