Hi,

I guess your question is not clear. Currently your cursor going back to name after Marks field and you don’t want it to go back to Name field and it should remain on marks field only ? If Yes,
Keep Name in one display record and other two fields Roll number and marks in other display record. 2nd record should overlay on 1st record with PROTECT keyword. So your cursor won’t go back to Name field again and it ramains on Marks field.

I am sorry If I have understood your question incorrectly.

Regards

The initial display looks this way: 

Name=.......

Roll no=......

Marks=.........

User types Name and presses <enter>. The Roll no= value is filled in by the program, and the cursor goes to Marks= and waits for the user to type a value. 

Name=BBBBBBB

Roll no=oooooo

Marks=.........

Now, the user can type into Marks=, but neither Name= nor Roll no= is open for typing. The cursor has no other field to go to, so it stays in the Marks= field.

Does that sound close to what you’re looking for?
