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.
