>All,
>I have an app and on a tab i have 10 fields. they are not linked to DB fields but i need them to be numeric. i have an input mask of 9999999.99 so i canot enter characters. but if i type in 12.34 the field ignores the decimal and i get 1234. it is only if i place the cursor int he correct place that i get 12.34. any ideas? also on the layout if i enter 12 and there are 3 spaces between the 2 and the decimal place the numbers stay where they are and it looks odd

What types are fields?
Try to set TextBox value to 0 (zero) in the designer.
