Thanks for the response. In emacs GNU Emacs 20.7.1
You cannot edit empty fields but in GNU Emacs 21.2.2 you can
so I think it is a bug. Which should be fixed at source level.

+ Commenting this out allows things to work. With it in, and an empty
+ data file, forms-mode gets confused, trying to position the point
+ after a non-existant entry.
+
+ Is this a bug in forms mode?
