If there are fields on the screen which you require to be filled in, have 
you considered tell filePro about this?  (Use "%nnn" rather than "*nnn" on 
the screen, and filePro will require that those fields be non-blank before 
allowing the user to save the screen.)

You mean, something like "SAVE OFF"?

If no processing is currently running, the it starts at line 1 of the input 
table.  Otherwise, it continues after the SCREEN/POPUP command that entered 
the screen.
