I think I am that anyone. Your SET_ITEM_PROP command should work unless you
are trying that after you disable your field, or then it won't work. So my
question is how where your disabling your field programmatically? I would
hope it was using the SET_ITEM_PROP 'ENABLED' attribute. Just replace that
command with 3 SET_ITEM_PROPs, one for VIS_ATT, one for MOUSE_NAV and one for
NAV. That field is basically a display-item now.
