In my combobox class I have code set in the properties

inputmask
=+PADL("",FSIZE(this.name,"modacad"),"X")

This works on my test form without classes. Soon as I put it in a class
it does not work. (when I look in the init event the inputmask is empty.)
When I try to manually set it in the command window it just stays empty.
Even if I use "XXX" or something.

I want to the the input mask filled with the same number of X's as the field
length no matter how long the field is.

What is wrong?
