There IS a way to use MODIFY SELECTION to have a list of records from one
file and programmatically jump to another file, it just gets a little messy
to implement first/prev/next/last buttons in the target file.

Basically, you have a BLANK input layout in the list file, with a proc
something like:

if (Before)
  lookup the [Projects] file based on this [Customer]
  call an edit procedure that does a MODIFY RECORD([Customer])
  CANCEL
end if

The CANCEL is so the current blank input layou exits before it is shown.
