Mike,
Does your field get the focus if you TRACE the command? Possibly a timing issue. Maybe try a PAUSE FOR 2 after the PROPERTY id_bigpdf GOURL .vdisplayname to give it time to process. Does your field get the focus if you TRACE the command? Jan -----Original Message----- From: "Michael J.

PROPERTY id_vfolder set_focus 'TRUE' PROPERTY id_vfolder lastchar 'true' RETURN The focus goes right where I want it, ie the end of the last character in my variable edit field But, if I have this... PROPERTY id_bigpdf GOURL .vdisplayname PROPERTY id_vfolder set_focus 'TRUE' PROPERTY id_vfolder lastchar 'true' RETURN The focus initially goes where it is supposed to go, but then it is "lost", I can't see a cursor anywhere. I have to click on the field at the end of the last character to make changes to the field. When I trace it, it works fine with or without the GOURL. Even stranger, I have "AUTOSELECT" checked for the desired field, and the characters are all still selected, but no cursor! Why is the PROPERTY id_bidpdf GOURL .vdisplayname command causing me to lose my cursor or the cursor location? Mike
