Allan,
It sounds like you'd be better off using the CHOOSE command.

Subject: Re: Rbwin65, Help with Inquiry Form to scroll through rows
| Hello Allan,
|
| You could add a dummy variable field to the end of the row and make it
| editable and make none of the other columns/fields editable. This gives
the
| cursor a place to land. From there you should be able to F7/8 to your
hearts
| content.
|
| Best regards,
| Mike Young
