>>I have a textbox that is not bound, I assign its initial value to 0. I have Format of K and SelOnEntry set to .t. The behaviour I am getting is any number I type in then hit the decimal point gets appended in front of the 0. For example, if I type 5. the 5 appends to the 0 to give 50. It takes a little effort to do this because of the Select On Entry, but I know a user can make just about anything happen. All it really takes is for the user to hit the END key, HOME key, LEFT or RIGHT arrow, and the SelOnEntry is gone, the cursor is now to the left of the 0. In FP 2.x, the behaviour was what I desired, typing in a number plus the decimal point completely replaced whatever was on the left of the decimal.

>I've just uploaded a vcx with a numeric textbox class in it. It will take a while before it shows up so I am also sending it to you by email. This class allows numeric entry like a calculator where the numbers come in from the right. The decimal point is placed automatically based on the input mask of the textbox.
I've been having the same problem. I put

keyboard "{HOME}"+"{SHIFT+END}"

in the gotfocus method and it seems to work ok for me
