Thanks Mike, that is very helpful. Now I feel I have a good handle on what I need to do and to avoid. Mike

Nothing negates the requirement for a RETURN statement at the end of a block of code. When a line containing code that is an "action call" (method) is executed the action is completed concurrent with the line of code not at the completion of the EEP. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael J.

Hi All, Dr. Razaak was kind enough to put me on the right track using PROPERTY SET_FOCUS and PROPERTY LASTCHAR to jump to the exact spot I want when I finish running my EEP. BUT, when I trace it, sometimes it looks like it waits until it gets to the RETURN statement, other times it appears that the PROPERTY SET_FOCUS gets executed immediately, and then when the next field finishes it's ON ENTER EEP, the program returns to the calling EEP, finishes the EEP and then bounces back to the target of the SET_FOCUS. How is it supposed to work? Does the PROPERTY SET_FOCUS eliminate the need for a RETURN at the end of the EEP? Thanks. Mike Sinclair
