Nancey is right, Charlie. When I told you in the FP Room the other day to
move the "memo xx show" from automatic to @entsel, that was just for
show'ing the memo on Screen 2 or 3 or whatever if you switched screens.
(automatic doesn't pick up screen switches) When you're in @entsel
processing, you can't post to real fields. By changing it to a memo xx edit,
you bumped into this. Just use an @keyE like we talked about to do the edit,
then things will stick.
