posted this before, but without response. checked the KB and the FAQ. some
insight, but no answers. anybody tackle this one?
I found that if I indicate that I handled the fldEnterEvent in my form
handler, that the Graffiti state gets set as I desire, but the insertion
point does not appear. I suppose I can code that in as well, but why can't
I just override the Graffiti state *after* the field handler does its job?

Boolean FormHandleEvent( EventPtr event)
{
Boolean handled = false;
if( event->eType == fldEnterEvent)
GrfSetState( true, false, false); //capsLock,
numLock, shift
return handled;
