Hi,

I have an inquiry/maintenance program with a 'position to' field for
data selection/filtering.
If you are trying to set a 'Position To', that is different than a Filter. If the user positions to 'B' they will expect to be able to page down into the 'C's as well. Based on your sample, a position to is a lot easier to do: 

Select recust#, reparent, cmcust, cmname From datalib.refile inner join
datalib.cmfile on recust# = cmcust Where cmname >= :PositionTo Order by
cmname
The only down side to this would be that you would need to requery the database for page up handling.
Someone else answered the Filter problem (when the host variable is blank).... 

hth,
JD
