I would like to display text from the tdsls300 table on one of my custom forms.

Can I display the text box automatically - if text exists?

Or - I would like to set a flag on the form that indicates text exists, then the user could press the "T" on the form to display the text.

My main table for this session is not the tdsls300 table, it's a custom table.

Can this be done?

Yes you can. It can be complicated depending on your main table. Does it have text fields? If no you'll have to use one of the user choices if yes you can use the text manager even though you'll be editing text from another table.
In my example I'm editing text associated with a production order even though the production order table is not my main table. Note that after I generated the program I changed the main table on the session to 'tisfc001' from 'tisfc000' - the reason being that 'tisfc000' does not have any text fields and the text manager picks that up and that code never is executed - hence the option to user 'choice.user.X'.

Any questions - I'm here!

I was knocking my head against the wall - and all I needed was the include <bic_text>.

Thanks for the detailed reply!!
