How do I get a custom field to show up in edit and view screen, but not on Create screen?

You simply add the field to the edit and view screen but not to the create screen. Add the 3 screens  to the screen scheme with corresponding action.

Hi Mike, actually it wasn't that simple. Originally I had a create, edit and a view screen. the edit and view needed a custom screen. When I added it to one, it showed up on all. When I set up the 3 screens, I used the original create screen for all three, at the time that met requirements. Then they changed.......

so I had to disassociate the create screen from the scheme, resave it, using a different name. From for example: name, to name2.

then I just added the field to the edit screen and it showed up in both edit and view. A learning experience for me.
