When using a browse lookup from a header file to a detail file (that  
may have from 1 to 999 records), I want to move the selection cursor  
in the lookup selection window to the line following the line that had  
been previously been selected and viewed.  I use a getnext command to  
put the user back into the browse selection window after hitting ESC- 
ESC when modifying the previously selected detail record.  I have  
tried looping through a pushkey command for CDWN based on the line  
number of the previous selection before the getnext but that doesn't  
seem to work.  Perhaps I have the pushkey command at the wrong place  
in the input table.  I do not know of any other command that will do  
what I want.

Does anyone have a suggestion that would make the pushkey command  
work, or is there another command that would highlight the proper line  
in the browse window?

Thanks in advance for any ideas.
