**HELP**with SQLForms30...moving cursor?

I'm a very novice ORACLE user and I have a question that I hope is easily 
answered.



I'm designing a 2-page form, the first page of which contains no input-able
fields. The second page DOES allow data entry.



Although the user cannot input data on fields on page one, the user needs to
be able to query at least one field on that page.



In fact, I need the form to open with the cursor in the first queryable field
on the first page; currently, the form opens with the cursor in the first field
of the SECOND page.



Is there a packaged procedure or trigger rationale that would allow me to force
the cursor to the queryable field(s) on the first page of the form?



Currently, the only way I can get the form to open to page 1 is to make the 
fields accessible to input, but this is not acceptable to the user.



Any help would be appreciated...and a private reply even more so.
