Scratch my last post...I completely misread the question...

I'll try again...though I haven't tried this...

put "nomode" on your screen statement (and move "action" placement is so
desired).

setup a define along the lines of...

define D-MODE char*10 = "Entry" if entrymode &
                  else  "Find" if findmode &
                  else  "Correct" if correctmode &
                  else  "Change" if changemode

Entry and find would probably display by default. you may need to force a
redisplay of the field at appropriate points in your code to display the
others...

...it must be Friday...

Good luck.

Regards
Dave

Hi fellow listers,

Has anybody out there used the CHANGEMODE/CORRECTMODE/ENTRYMODE/FINDMODE
conditions to control the value of a string that is displayed on the screen.
I'm trying to replace the single character mode field with a text string
that is more meaningful to our users. We have a large turnover of
temporary/casual staff and some of them are a bit short on ... well you know
what I mean ;)

regards,
