I actually found the REAL culprit: the rect of a locked field above
overlapped by a bit the rect of the editable field.  Motto: check the rects
of all your fields, they might bite you later.

Recipe: create a field, check cursor is OK and showing in field. Type
something:  your name...  your favourite fruit (mango is mine).

Now create a label field, make sure the rect overlaps the editable field a
bit.  Try clickin' on the editable field, you get focus, you can type, but
no cursor.

There you go.  The real problem it seems, thought I'd better update from
last e-mail.

Sorry to bother you all, my 2 cent solution.  Probably a million others have
found this solution.  Now a million x 2 cents...
