Bernie,
I am trying to skip past the HELP button from field VMEAID.
I leave VMEAID with [Enter].
VMEAID has exit eep RECALSK1.EEP.
- - RECALSK1.EEP
RECALC
SKIP 1
RETURN
The field I want to skip to is the first field in the form, VTYPE.
VYTYPE has exit eep TYPESEL.EEP.
- - TYPESEL.EEP
SET VAR v1stchar = typeid IN ttyp WHERE typedesc = .vtype
RECALC
RETURN
Column TYPEID is in both table TTYP and TTRAN, the form's table.
The above will not skip past the HELP button, nor will SKIP TO vtype.
Is there another way to skip the HELP button or what am I doing wrong in
the above sequence?
Jim
