Hi Ron,

It sounds a bit like you want to create a grid of rows and columns. Have 
you considered using my EuGrid grid control for this (see Euphoria 
contributions page)? It allows you to create a grid of editable cells 
and automatically handles keyboard navigation and scrolling...

Please ignore if not relevant!
