Alan, I don't want to try to get too far into the code you're working
with, but if you're going to prompt for a value and display the returned
value on the screen but not allow updates, then the field on the screen
should be a work field.
Do this in your display:
A #RVSCDE_W 3A B 8 77
And then in your program, just set #RVSCDE_W to #RVSCDE just before you
EXFMT the screen.
If the field is not already defined in your program, then do a LIKE
DEFINE to define #RVSCDE the same as #RVSCDE_W. That should do what you
want. The prompt logic will fill #RVSCDE, and then even if they manage
to clear #RVSCDE_W it won't affect the original field.

HI Booth
This looks,similar to what Joe Pluta suggested
The field exit key will still clear it, and I know a number of users, use field exit key to tab
However, I will give it another shot and see what happens
