Subject:      Data Entry Question

When entering data into a form in PC Nomad, is it possible to
perform error checks as the field is filled, i.e before the ENTER
key is pressed?  In my application, the user is looking through
a microscope at strings of cells and entering values (1-6) for each
cell into an array item.  Since the user cannot see what is being
entered on the screen, it would be nice if the application could
detect a miskeyed value immediately.  Anyone have any experience/
suggestions on this?  Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.
