| First of all, I am a novice on filepro. I have managed to get around
| and do basic IO. I have run into a situation where the screens for a
| file do not appear to match the file. So my question is how to I get
| the field definition for the rest of the fields?
Screens don't "match" anything, they show (some of the) fields of the
file. My guess: whoever set up that file decided to use a data segment
as well as a key segment..
While you're in Define files, hit D, then K, then D...
Most of us avoid having a Data segment, but it's no big deal to live
with it.
