G'day All
I have a text field with a mask of "999.99"
On the screen it displays as "___.__"
If I want to test it for blank in the exit code, I have to actually test if it equals "___.__" as
If myself <> "___.__"
do something
End
I find it quite bizarre that the input mask inserts itself as the returned value for a screen field.
I would like to test the field as IF nospace(myself) = ""
Because then I don't have to know anything about the mask but because of the input mask I have to be very precise in testing for blanks on masked fields and if I ever change the mask I also have to remember to change the exit code test.
Anyone have any other ideas on testing masked fields for blank entry
Regards
Al
