Some Sort of Control From The Browse Screen

[John Esak]

I'm afraid, while this is helpful from Bob, it doesn't work *only* when you do it from the IUA browse.  This is simply a when entering field 1 trigger.  It has no way of knowing that you came from the browse... Or from another field, or from @keyU.  Well, you could trap a variable in the @keyU process, but still it would not discriminate whether you are pressing "U" at @entsel or from the browse.

I don't think you can do what you want to do. I think Ken or Ron would have piped up if it was possible.

You can delineate/discriminate between @keyU and @update but that's about it.

John
