First of all, I MUST thanks for all your responses and am appreciated to your help and answers... Now I have another question listed as follow: I need to write a piece of codes with something like this: customer entries +--------------------------------------------------------+ | | | ______ _____________ __________ | +--------------------------------------------------------+ | line # customer name customer # | +--------------------------------------------------------+ | XXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXX | | XXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXX | | XXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXX | | XXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXX | | | | | | | +--------------------------------------------------------+ for each entries, I will write a temporary file, and display it onto the screen, and scroll it when the screen is full. The "line #" is generated by the program, and the user can override it, when he/she does that. It is then assumed he/she want to make a change the record. The record that to be modified will be highlighted onto the screen. What I want to know is whether I can use DBEDIT function to do such job??? If so, can someone give me some hints or an example...( as I have never used this function before and been told me it is a very powerful function ). Any answers, please write them here or send them directly to the e-mail addresses below. By the way, I am still using Clipper (Summer 87' version).. Thanks in advance..., YY --- Y. Y.
