The heart of the matter is that even in a browse, these
field rules are active and we get the message of help, revert
and ok. Oldval() and newval() need buffering with cursorsetprop
and just opening a browse doesn't do this. I just need the
DBC to stop setting it's own defaults. How can I do this??
