ESC Key

[Richard D. Williams]

Scott,

When the ESC is hit, you can simply add code to test for the required 
fields.
i.e.
if  : 5 eq ""
then: msgbox "You must enter a value is field 5!";screen ,5;goto top

Or you could just use the % instead of the * on the screen for each 
fields that is required.

I do not believe trying to stop the ESC is the answer.  You will still 
need that to record the data.
