focus in field problem

[Nicolas Cueto]

According to the documentation for the "focus" command:

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

I tried this command with an unlocked field and the flashing
insertion point does appear in the field, but it appears before
the the first word in the field rather than, as the docs say,
after the text in the field.

Is there another way of controlling where the insertion
point appears in a field?

Thank you.
