Put INPUT ARRAY inside of } a WHILE loop. In the BEFORE FIELD clause, do a DISPLAY ATTRIBUTE(REVERSE), } then a regular DISPLAY in the AFTER FIELD clause. } If only it were that simple! You need to disable the INSERT and DELETE keys, not allow ADDING of data at the end of the list, and not allow UPDATING of the data that is already there. There is definately alot of "behind the scenes" coding that has to be done.
