Hi,
 
You can get the cursor to appear at the end of existing data when the user
tries to change a field by doing "control/b" in the field.  
 
However we did not want our users to have to do any special commands and you
can achieve the same result by doing the following in a modify procedure or
by a numbered designer procedure for the field in question e.g.:
 
Procedure designer 01 ;field id number
Begin
    Block transfer
    Begin
        Accept field-name
    End
End

Hello,
I have a character type field in one of my files with some data in it. How
do i make slight changes (add or delete a single word) to the contents of
that field without losing the existing data? This has to be done thro' a qks
prg.
 
thanks
