Thanks for all the trouble Renoir. I have found the problem. In the framework CodeBook there is an txt.init() where the inputmask is filled by X's this is just so that the field length is maintained. Now I had modified the grid class to set the col.inputmask to the txt.inputmask (which now contains x's) and the column didn't like it.
I would have sent the vcx's but like I said it it dependent on codebook, sending one set would have asked for another <g>.
>I do not need to run the applicaton, but I would like to be able to open the classes. I'm getting errors when trying to open frmtcdtrans. It expects other classes to be available that are in the C04 and common\libs directories. Would you send me all the files I need to open this form?
