Just guessing from the manual... have you tried )PNTS FIELD(field) VAR(VAR1) VAL(1)
Here's the manual info I'm going from: For point-and-shoot input/output fields, the format is: FIELD(field_name) where: field_name The name of the field on the panel that this statement controls. For point-and-shoot text fields, the format is: FIELD(ZPSxxyyy) where: xx 00 for a point-and-shoot field defined in the )BODY section and 01 to 99 for the number of the scrollable area in which the point-and-shoot text field is defined. Each scrollable area is assigned a sequential number based on its relative position within the panel body. The scrollable area closest to the upper-left corner of the panel body is assigned number 01. Each additional scrollable area, scanning left to right, top to bottom, is assigned the next sequential number. A maximum of 99 scrollable areas in any given panel can contain point- and-shoot text fields. yyy 001 to 999 for the relative number of the point-and-shoot text field within the panel body or within a particular scrollable area. A point-and-shoot text field can wrap around multiple terminal lines in panels that are not displayed in a window. A point-and-shoot text field that logically wraps in a pop-up window requires the beginning of each wrapped line to contain a PS field attribute and an entry must exist in the )PNTS section for each wrapped line. This is also true for panels containing the WINDOW() keyword that are not displayed in a pop-up window. The additional )PNTS section entries should result in the same action as the first line of the wrapped text field.
