Dale:

The position of the record pointer shouldn't affect
the list-box default. Simply stated, if the default
exists in the array for the list-box, the list box
should have the default highlighted. The default is
the value of the associated memvar.

Check that the length and case of the memvar matches
the array subscript exactly, EXACT off/on, etc. I've
had this mess me up.

Are you rebuilding the list-box array after the
cursor is altered?
