I believe you understood it, though I can't do what you suggest.

mode1 asks for a uid whose profile I want to edit.
mode2 fetches the profile data and then displays the full record.

Just wondered if I could somehow split the fetch/display into
separate run modes. It's not important and I'm guessing the best
answer is "why?"

Thanks,
Jon
