#27 New value entered in last EDITBOX with 1 character field closes dialog window immediately without an action, when PICTURE ist used.

[Wilfried Brunken]

When entering a new value in second field "OUT",
the window closes immediately without an action
in FUNCTION _frm_QSL_spez.
When modifying picture to "@! XX" you need 2 characters
for closing the dialog.
Later i realized, when removing the PICTURE-clause for oEditbo502
the behavior is normal, so i must say before storing the
contents of OUT to the database:
local_send := UPPER(local_send).
(This helps me for the first time)

Don't matter the german text.

Hello,
during the development of my application "CLLOG" i realized, that the clause "NOEXIT" in "INIT DIALOG" helps, that the editing window don't close when entering a value into the last edit field. with PICTURE clause.
That fact helps me.

Hello,
other option is to add STYLE ES_UPPERCASE instead of PICTURE "@! X", if possible.
So the behavior is normal.
