Description
A synonym of the EDITFIELD() function, this command enables or disables dBASE compatible use of the [CURSOR RIGHT] key for editing of textual fields on forms. When EDITFIELD is ON, characters initially typed over a field overwrite only those characters shown, and on pressing the [RETURN] key the remainder of the field is included as user input. If EDITFIELD is set OFF, only what is typed into the field is saved. The default setting for EDITFIELD is OFF.
Example
set editfield on use accounts set form to customers
