The tab key itself does not work within these >screen fields. I've noticed that tab *does* seem to work if the field is WORDWRAP (this was running 4.something on an SCO box). I never pursued the phenomina to any logical conclusion, so here's your chance. I suspose you could try adding WORDWRAP COMPRESS to the fields in the .per file, even though there isn't really any extra lines to wrap into, and see if it works for you. ======================================================================= Dennis J.
