Baker) Newsgroups: comp.databases Subject: Clipper dbedit() Message-ID: <13203@hydra.gatech.EDU> Date: 31 Aug 90 02:03:27 GMT Organization: Georgia Institute of Technology Lines: 18 Clipper '87 added the powerful and sometime dangerous dbedit() function to attempt to replace dBase's BROWSE. I've stretched it as much as I could imagine, like the DBU utility, but would *really*, *really* be impressed and *very* appreciative if there was a way to "lock" a field. That is, to have one field (leftmost is fine) that would remain as the other columns scrolled "beneath" it. The locked column needs to stay refreshed as the database is scrolled vertically, too. Am I dreaming?
