I think this problem is not directly related to the fact the field is
blank. Are you using 'control always'? If not, FSEDIT won't run your
MAIN: section unless you have edited a field. ie, when you press Enter
on the field without having edited it, FSEDIT doesn't bother to run MAIN
at all.
To force MAIN to run whenever you press Enter (or any other function key)
regardless of whether any fields have been changed, add the statement
'control always;' to your INIT section.
Chris.
