I found this out too. Need to add some fields and neither apply or Ok
save the settings I had chosen for text and integer fields.
I'll try editing manually.

I wholehearted agree! I put a project shortcut on the desktop just cuz I
know it's going to crash. Crash/fix bug/rebuild/close/project shortcut
to start again.

Does not do it if you step thru the code… but execute or continue
thread shows it incorrectly.

I am getting it too…
My opening form is created invisibly, status bar set then window is made
visible.

Status bar is 1/3 down from top along left side.

Does not matter what form is display in window.

I was examining getuserinput function. It's in toolbars but I'm not
using toolbars on this particular form.

But the real problem is:
1)importing uisyshelp into project revealed coding error in datepicker
2)can not edit uisyshelp in IDE to comment it out (ended up using
notepad to edit and comment out – worked fine)

opening file datapicker.sma in notepad, comment out, save works.
But why can't I do that in IDE?

Will the error be fixed soon?

One more thing…
When you maximize a form, the part of the screen outside the form is
always dark gray. Anyway to make that match the background of the form?

While you are looking at FD, would you please add the filename of the
form to the title bar?

I have 6 3 page forms that are exactly alike (for now) except for some
data fields on the 3rd page.

It would be helpful to know I'm working on the correct form without
having to go to the 3rd page and inspect a field.

I could swear I sent this before but I must be having a senior moment.

Still having prob with copy/paste of option button but also have a 2nd
prob. Create an option button on Page 2, save, close Personal, reopen
and option button is now on page 1.

While you are looking, I found these other quirks.
Bold attribute turns off when you change text alignment
Undo does not return you to the page you were on
Some text fields do not keep text color (must click on them again to
show text in selected color)

I've attached a screen cap with notations and the form.

Thanks!
Jean
