Rob,
In your eep that calls the secondary form include:
prevTab
recalc Tables
nextTab
just after the "edit using" statement.
There are some draw backs... (may have been corrected in 6.5++)
1) The cursor sometimes disappears
2) The cursor will be on the first line of the region when control is
returned to the user
3) In some instances prevTab/nextTab are problematic (if I
remember correctly) and can be replaced by playing back
[Shft][F7] and [Shft][F8] which I think avoids the cursor problem.
