Won't help you here, but the function you're looking for exists in 
AS/SET. Pretty nice, no indicators in the code, move the field and it 
still works. There's also a function %CursorLocateField or %CLF as in IF 
%CLF(fieldname) = *ON.

Nice AS/SET feature, though it's also pretty easy to find things to slam 
these days.
