currently i have a field that is output only in the dspf so that the user
can SEE the value in it but if they want to change it they have to f4 to
pull up another maintenance window for that field.
PO growling because the user cannot tab into the field then press f4 to
update it.

sooo, is there a way to keep the field from being edited but allow it to be
tabbed into.

case of want my cake and eat it too i realize... and probably not practical.

only other thought was to put a 1char input field just before it to allow
them to tab into and press f4 giving the appearance they are on the field.
