Hard to believe I haven't had to do this yet in 7.6.

I have a 2-table form that I will be using with ENTER USING (but will also 
probably have the same problem with an EDIT USING next).  The second table is a 
scrolling region.    This is an update from 6.5 that used a playback file to 
do what I need.

There is a field called "Bill Rate" that is based on a rather complicated 
combination of things, too complicated to put in a form variable.  It also 
requires user confirmation that the rate it calculated is okay, allow them to 
change 
it if they want, then have the field updated with that value.    

I put an entry eep into the Bill Rate field to do all that -- worked fine 
until I had to figure out how to update the field.  Can't use a CompID because 
it's a region so they all would change.   Is this what I would do:   (1) save 
the row,  (2) update the row,   (3) do a table refresh?   I'm just wondering 
what that would do to the cursor location in the form.  They are in Enter mode 
and are used to traveling fast between the fields, so it would be unacceptable 
to them if they end up not on the same row and able to [enter] their way into 
another new row.   Before I waste time figuring out how this will work, figured 
I'd ask you guys.  How can I mimic what we did in 6.5 with a playback?
