HP-UX B.11.11 / INFORMIX-4GL 7.30.HC6 We have found a 4GL bug in which actual tab characters can be inserted into a screen field and subsequently into the database. It only happens under exactly the following conditions: 1) The field is multi-line (defined as WORDWRAP on the form) 2) Character insertion mode is active (Ctrl-A key) 3) Tab is pressed There are 88 forms affected, so I really want a generic fix so I don't have to put in a work-around in all the 4GL modules. Any ideas? Also posted to: classics@iiug.org -- Regards, Doug Lawry www.douglawry.webhop.org
