peva Posts: 38 Rating: (0)	Hello All, I'm not able to force value in F variables - the cursor just skips the field... DW's I can modify without problem. Can someone help one desperate beginner (me) ? Thanx in advance Petr

peva Posts: 38 Rating: (0)	Hello Wizard! Yes, I have carefully read the said manual, unfortunatedly the line: 4. Modify the current values and complete your input with the Insert key. is all I have found there... My problem is, that I am not able to jump to the value of my variable -> when I press "cursor-right", my cursor just jumps to another line with another variable - it just skips the values of all my F variables...[:cry:] Only when I'm on a line with a DW variable, the "cursor-right" jumps to its value and I'm able to modify it. Have you got a clue? Thanks, Petr

peva Posts: 38 Rating: (0)	Thanks! Your nickname doesn't lie - you definitively are a Wizard![:D] I wasn't reading the docs carefully enough, the fact that F/Q/I/S are just read-only is mentionned there... Regards, have a nice day Petr
