Open 4GL form with record displayed. . .

I posted a similar message before, but only got an answer on the trigger part of the question. I would like to open up a 4GL form, but instead of querying for a record after the form opens, I would like to perform the query first, and then open up the 4GL form with the record in it. Anyone do this before or have any suggestions on how to do this? Details would be appreciated. Thanks-a-bunch. MoJo Risin -- Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

Or, if you are opening empty window first, and then displaying the form, move them both, or just the display form, to the same place.
