It has been awhile, but if you describe the field as numeric, it shouldn't allow the blank to be entered...regardless of tab or field exit.
As I said...it has been awhile since I wrote a display file (15+ years!)!

Subject: Display File spaces in number input fields.
In a display file you can mark a field to require field exit. However, it doesn't prevent you from hitting tab and then hitting enter and submitting the screen to the RPG program. The issue I'm having is that a user can put a 1 in the first space of the field and then put two spaces followed by another number. So it looks like this...
1 1. After tabbing from the field (instead of field exit) and then pressing enter, the number is changed to 1001 after the RPG program redisplays the screen. How can I prevent this?
Thank you,
