Of course you could ask for an enhancement but -- I always find it useful to add a number field to each row which also makes it easier to retrieve a particular row by that key field. ----- Original Message ----- From: Michael J.

Hi Bernie, Do you think it would be reasonable (or useful) to ask for an ehancement, ie something like.... SET F2 add_above vs SET F2 add_below or SET INSERT add_above vs SET INSERT add_below Mike From: Bernard Lis <[email protected]> To: RBASE-L Mailing List <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, August 14, 2011 5:56 PM Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Modifying the [F2] key in version 7.6 or 9.1 Hi Mike, here's a suggestion: Create a new field to hold a sequential number (number the lines by 5, i.e. 5, 10, 15, etc.) Then when you want to add a row below line 10, number it as line no. plus 1 (so it would be line 11). Then refresh your screen but order it by LineNo. Bernie Lis ----- Original Message ----- From: Michael J.

When I tap the [F2] key, the line is inserted about the current field. Can I change that to make the insert create a new line below the current field? When I do create the field, exit and then return, the new line is indeed at the bottom, but I think it might be nicer if the user sees the new line being created under the current line, especically if the cursor is resting on the very last line. Thank you for your time. Mike
