RIGHT AFTER A SET OF GROUPED FIELDS, THE NEXT FIELD IN THE WINDOW
DUPLICATES THE DATA ENTERED IN THE PREVIOUS FIELD. HAS ANYONE EXPERIENCED THIS BEFORE. WOULD THIS HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE GROUPED FIELDS

You have two or more associated multi-value fields defined as a group in your window, let's call them FIELD1, FIELD2, and FIELD3. You enter data and move on to FIELD4. FIELD4 defaults to the data values in one of the other fields. Is this right?
Two possibilities come to mind. First, the prompt for FIELD4 may have a PRE-PROMPT R/Basic subroutine that assigns a value to @ANS, which then displays on screen when the cursor moves to FIELD4. Perhaps it was put there by mistake. Also look for any PRE- or POST-PROMPT subroutines that load @RECORD with data.
Or the FMC for the FIELD4 prompt may simply be set to the same FMC as the prompt from which data is duplicated. You can tell immediately if this is the case if data entered in FIELD4 changes the data in FIELD1/2/3 when you leave FIELD4.
If you can PAINT the window, look at the prompt details for each field for clues as to what's actually happening. Check the FMC numbers and PRE- and POST-PROMPT processing, then change the accordingly.

The prompt getting the duplicate is outside the group list? What are the field numbers in question? There was a bug in 3.1 or 3.11 that caused a similar problem.
