Re: Subfile (20 rows, 4 columns per page) arrow keys to move between sfl records

[Gerald Magnuson <gmagqcy.midrange@xxxxxxxxx>]

I do believe you are correct in that I cannot capture the arrow keys...
yet, there are no input fields in the subfile record, but there is on the
STLCTL (at the bottom of screen)

the purpose is:
the cursor is at bottom of screen on the SFLCTL field...  (input new rows)
however, If the user mouse clicks, or presses enter on a sfl row, we jump
to that rows detail information...

some people are not "mousey" and would rather use arrow keys;   but the tab
key may be the only alternative.
