Hi Len For your first problem, you can watch what is happening using the Message watcher (in the development menu).
Put a message handler like this into your field's script: on tabkey breakpoint pass tabkey -- debug step into here end tabkey (note it could another message like keydown or keyup etc that's triggering the fld clearing, the msg watcher will tell...) Once in debug mode at the breakpoint, continuing in debugging "into" the pass tabkey handler should take you to the "other" tabkey script above in the hierarchy that is clearing your field... hope that helps... For the second problem, it's a huge undertaiking that im sure has been done before... Look around, maybe someone will tell you where to get it...
