input data in selected fields
i would suggest the following procedure: 1. create a data entry file with all fields and add your checks for 81-85 2. HIDE all fields except 81-85 3. JUMP to 81 after opening a record 4. AUTOSAVE after 85
hope this helps, Markus

Dear members in the list
I have a database with about 2000 records, each one with 90 fields. I want to input information that is missing in fields 81 to 85. I would like to use an entry screen that shows me only field 81 to 90. This is because I have a chk file that has command that produce information in fields 86 to 90, based on the information I input in fields 81 to 85. Is it possible to do that to make a simplified entry screen to use only a fraction of the fields in the data base? I will appreciate your help
