RE: Keyboard Lock

[Roger Boucher <RBoucher@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I taught all our users that key (newline) and many others (tab) when we
switched them to a green-screen application.  My experience is that they
need to get very frustrated before they are willing to learn.  If I tell
them at the start I find they don't learn it.  If I tell them after a day or
two and they gobble it up.

Ah, yes, the "clever" users!  Well, if you've told them, let'em curse!

BTW, you mentioned that they know about the tab keys (both forward &
backward?),
but what about the "new line" key?  From PC5250 Help:

"New line moves the cursor to the first input-position in the next line that
has
an input field."
