And the winner is ... Roy Brown (and the anonymous person who first
suggested I try a "real" terminal).  Making the modifications to the forms
file on a "true" (2392) terminal solved the problem.  I would not say that
the problem is only with Reflection for HP v6.0 partly because we do not
have any other version of Reflection.  And because the problem also
occurred with Minisoft v5.2.

For what it's worth, you can do the compiling on Reflection (and probably
Minisoft), but not the modification to the forms file.  In FORMSPEC,
pressing the Enter key on a form with a security enhanced field on it (even
if no changes are made to the form) using Reflection for HP v6.0 or
Minisoft v5.2 will destroy the security enhancement.
