I have a combo box in a grid. The grid displays a parameterized view.

The combobox works fine, except when "*OTHER" is choosen by a user. In the valid method of the combobox, I run a modal form which then lets the user type a value into a text box. The value is returned correctly, but when I do a "replace" to put the value into the field in the view, it doesn't change the value. The value of the field stays as "*OTHER".

It is almost as if the REPLACE command isn't excuted.

Note:
- if I remove the call to the other form, the replace works (I used a constant to test this)
- the value returned from the form is good
- the line after the call to the form is executed (I tested this by putting a print statement after the DO FORM line)
- the debugger shows that the field always keeps the value "*OTHER"

Any ideas?
