Like Steve, I think that your question has been answered, but I would 
like to add 1 more piece of information.  You need to check if the field 
number being passed is Positive or Negative.  If the number is POSITIVE 
then you need to make sure that the field number that you are passing is 
the same as the field number (Num) on the "Field Menu" within formspec.  
If per chance you are passing a NEGATIVE number then you need to count 
the fields manually start from top to bottom, left to right of the 
screen and pass the appropriate field number as a negative number.  It 
is VERY unlikely that the absolute value of these numbers will be the 
same unless you have renumbered the fields on the form.

One other point.  If per chance you think that the forms file could be 
corrupt, there is a way to cleanup the forms file.  This is done by 
going to the "Terminal/Language Selection Menu" (select option T from 
the main menu).  Once on the Terminal ... screen, simply press ENTER and 
then press F7 to get back to the main menu.  At this point you will need 
to recompile the forms file.  This will take some time because the first 
thing that it will do is cleanup the forms file and the recompile the 
entire file.

Hope this helps.
