However, Brian is correct that they could possibly write a wrapper class around the EDIT control and then hopefully clear out that issue. But thank Microsoft for causing the problem. This has happened many a time with MS patches. That's another great reason I use Delphi. I'm not dependent on any MFC DLLs. <g>

Rich,
I'm confused. MS fixes a bug and you say this causes a problem? It sounds to me that the developers of the control programmed to the bug and now they are paying the price.

In my mind it's similar developers to writing "bad" SQL statements in VFP versions prior to 8 that didn't include all non-aggregates in the GROUP BY clause. When MS "corrected the issue" in VFP 8, many developers were left hanging.

Just my $0.02.
