Mark, You can use VGETFORMINFO and parse the Fields-In-Error bit array to find the first field in error. You can use the HPBYTE routines to extract and check the bits.

In other words; I call VFIELDEDITS, numerrs in the communications buffer is > zero so I call VERRMSG to get the error message associated with the first field on the form that is in error. I would like to know which field that is. TAI -- Mark Undrill Affirm Limited
