  • Subject: Numeric fields bug
  • From: "Scott Klement" <infosys@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

It appears that when you've got a signed numeric field, it allows
you to type any numeric character that you wish in the spot where
the sign should go.

Other emulators don't let you type anything in that spot, the cursor
just sits there til you hit tab, field exit, field minus or some
other key that moves you to the next field.

At any rate, if I type a number where the sign should be, the AS/400
will think that theres an I/O error with the terminal, and the
program that I'm running on the AS/400 will crash with a CPF message.

This may be the same error that Sean Porterfield reported earlier,
I'm not sure... but it happens consistently when you type a number
where the sign should be...

Thanks!
