  15. Will dBASE IV accept a number returned from a VALID UDF (instead of .T.
  16. or .F.) and go to the field of that number, as FoxPro will?  If so, try
  17. returning the number of the field you are already on.  Perhaps it will
  18. act as though you've left the field and returned to it (but include a
  19. way to get off the field when you want to, or you'll be stuck there).
