Hi Charly,

Firstly, you can not specify nomode, noaction and NOFIELDMARK, which will be
the default in this case.

You could include a file, any file will do and force it through the backout
procedure by :

screen A nomode noaction act entry autoupdate autoreturn
file employees primary
temp YN char*1 
field YN
procedure preentry
begin
  let last-name of employees = "Dummy"
end
procedure backout
begin
  return
end
build

The only problem is that it will display the "The current data will be lost.
Repeat the action if this is okay." message.

Another way, avoiding this message is :

scr A  act entry autoupdate autoreturn nomode noaction
temp YN char*1
field YN

procedure initialize
begin
  accept YN
end
build

But the ^ can only be done before the normal entry procedure is invoked

I hope this helps

Fellow PH'ers
I have the following screen: (part off)

scr A nomode noaction act entry autoupdate autoreturn
temp YN char*1
field YN
go

If the user backs out (^), cursor goes to pos1,1
(as if looking for the action field)
without leaving the screen.

How to leave the screen at once?

TIA
Charly
