J: Yes, this form is to edit a sale, looking up to the inventory table of the item being sold. Sometimes the user can "complete" the sale by entering just the weight being sold, and sometimes they must enter both a weight and the #units sold; for the latter we need to use a separate form.

Sure. The row has something like 6 lookup values and 6 editable fields (not dialed into the client at the moment). 2 of the fields can be directly edited, or might have to be made read-only based on criteria. The field that I need to identify has a variable defined:
       vLotID = LotID
Then I have a form variable that says
       vPickUnits = Units from Inventory where lotid = .vlotid
       vPickYN = (IFEQ(.vPickUnits,0,' ', 'PICK WEIGHT))

So in other words, if there is something in the Units column of the Inventory table, then they cannot edit 2 of the fields on the region. They would have to click a button that brings up a smaller form where they would do the editing. If there are no Units in the inventory table, then they can type directly into those fields.

Hope I described that well enough!
