     Many thanks for all the ideas - what a knowledge base is out there! 
     Allen, Daniel, Michael, Bob, Lorry, Guy, and Ron all had valid insight 
     for me.  My solution was to use ITEM Initial value on some of the 
     items and then fill in the other items in the PREUPDATE if the user 
     wanted to actually do the UPDATE.  This plus prompt the user if they 
     really wanted to create this DESIGNER record when they did a field 
     change on any of the exhibited fields, allowed good control of the 
     file and the unwanted warning message when no UPDATE was requested.
     
     By the way, here in the Pacific Northwest, we don't use much Pine, 
     mostly Douglas fir and Port Orford cedar :=)

     Has anyone an idea how to prevent the QUICK message "Data has been 
     changed but not updated. Repeat the action if this is ok." to be 
     programatically NOT show.  I've a POSTFIND process that retrieves a 
     DESIGNER file's record and when not found, does a few LETs to items in 
     it. 
     
     When the screen user decides not to do an Update and just do another 
     FIND, I want no automatic warning message to show.  Am I missing 
     something obvious?
