Description

The SET NAVIGATE command controls cursor movement within a form. When SET NAVIGATE is ON, the cursor keys may be used to navigate within a form independent to the order defined by the @...GET statements which make up that form. When you are in a form that has been activated with the READ, EDIT, CHANGE, QUERY, or APPEND command, and SET NAVIGATE is ON, the cursor keys (UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT) may be used to moved from field to field in any order rather than in order of the @...GET statements in the form. When SET NAVIGATE is OFF, the cursor moves sequentially from field to field, following the order of the activated @...GET statements.

Example

set navigate on
