Because my : ON KEY contains an EXIT INPUT statement, any data changes in the current : field are discarded when the EXIT INPUT is done. : Any ideas or solutions would be welcome. I am sure others have had this : problem before. I use function get_fldbuf(scr_fld) to save current data before I exit input. The function is described in INFORMIX-4GL Version 4.1 Reference Manual Supplement.
