SolVbaDSLMaskedText display from right hand side.

Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

Hi everyone,

I just inserted an object called SolVbaDSLMaskedText into Invoice and Memo screen (08.010.00) for my customization. The field type that I am using is character with the length of 100 character. When I key in my value into the text box that I created, at first it will show what I have key in. 8407.mrcb-0801000-problem-2.png

But when I click back to the text box, the text box will be highlighted and the value that I key in will appears to be 'disappear'.

When I click on another object, this object still appears to be empty.

But when I press the 'Home' button from keyboard, the value will show up again.

Is it the field length that I am using too long and cause the text box show from the back? By the way, the alignment of the text box I was set to "0 - Left Justify". I was using Dynamic SL 2015 to do my customization.

    Ken, I have seen this issue. I resolved my case by simply trimming the value before displaying it. After the fetch on the RefNbr for the custom data from the custom table, trim the value to the field before displaying.

    dim ourRef$

    Fetch Events...

    ourRef = trim(bCustTable.OurRef)

    The trim helps in ensuring that the object does not get populated with the whole buffer value even with spaces. So it seems to be taking the cursor to the end of the field due to the un-trimmed trailing spaces.

    Then:

    call setobjectvalue(txtOurRef, OurRef)....

    This should help you out.   This is how I have worked around the issue in my case.

    Not sure why it happens in SL2015.

    Thanks,

    Edwin

    Hello Kennthkoh,

    As everyone discussed the control and table have not been at the same level. Probably you can check the below things in your control properties.

    • Check the level property your text box
    • Level property of the table at the form load

    Call VBA_SetAddr ("bxCustable ", bxCustable, nxCustable, LenB (bxCustable))

    Call SqlCursorEx (csr_xCustable, NOLEVEL, "csr_ xCustable", “xCustable", "xCustable")

    If you are setting the level as NOLEVEL for your table, you can just put the Level property of control as 15, k.

    Please try this one and let me know how it goes.

    Hi kennthkoh,

    In that specific text field set the Level as "NOLEVEL"

    Also call the Setaddr in form1_ load event

    Call VBA_SetAddr("bxCustable", bxCustable, nxCustable, LenB(bxCustable))
    Call SqlCursor(CSR_xCustable, NOLEVEL)

    This may help you

    Thanks,

    Hi Karthik,

    I am using custom table and All Users level for my customization.

    It sounds like a levels issue.  Ether your table or the object is not at the same level as the other objects in the document section.

    Hi,

    Are you using the custom table or user fields in one of the standard table. It should be dealing with the Levels. Please let me know the level and table information so that we can get rid of this issue.  

    Thanks,

    Karthik
