FOCUSsing after TEXT

[Richmond Mathewson]

Wisht to focus the cursor in a field after some text:

Help (in Build 420) has this:

"If the object is an unlocked field, the insertion
point is placed after the text in the field."

so set to find out how to do this:

nothing in the documentation that I could find under
LOCK

went back to RR 1.1.1 (!!!!!!!!) and found quite a bit

[Now don't tell me that the reason that that is not
now documented is because everybody knows that by now
- won't wash]

slightly more in RR 2.0.1

vanished in RR 2.6.1

however does not refer to text fields:

tried this:  set the locked of fld "F3" to false
                    focus on fld "F3"

still bungs the cursor in front of the text.  Oh Dear.

Would be grateful for guidance.

sincerely, Richmond Mathewson
