Jim,

You have absolutely no idea how difficult it is to insert this behaviour
and still have it work correctly most of the time.

If you have some simple source that causes the "feature" :-) you can waft
it to me directly.

We're still working on the _last_ bunch of problems, sheesh!  At this rate
you will find all the existing inserted bugs and we'll have to come up
with a new bunch for the next  go-round.

Kind regards,

Mike

Hello again!

It must seem like I'm a whiner!  I'm working with a window
in Code Designer, and I just noticed that when I ask
Designer to reorder the fields in a record (Window record,
right click, chose Re-order fields) ALL of my fields (text
defaults as well as the named fields) have negative numbers
in either the line or the column.  I am going to try and
make it fail again on the same member, but I first have to
fix the negative numbers.  When it creates negative
numbers, it then seems to forget that it is working in a
window, and all fields the reference their position by the
top corner of the screen, and not by the top left corner of
the window.


Hope this helps you find the problems with this wonderful
(but quirky) tool.
