Ray,
If you always want to browse away without that prompt on button press on
the form, you can look into the 'SET-CHANGE-FLAG' run-process.  Setting it
to 0 will tell the form there are no changes that need to be made, and
allow you to navigate away from the form without prompt.

Either that....or you could change the flag on various fields on your form
to 'Disable Change Flag' to True, and then setting that field won't trigger
the change field flag, and it won't be set when you try to navigate away.
 Either way should work :)
