7.5 was a very shaky release, and full of bugs so I wouldn’t be surprised you 
are having issues like that.. For the very short time I was exposed to that 
version, it was a living nightmare for me as a developer. Things that you would 
have taken for granted and built your code within minutes wouldn’t work the way 
it should and it took me at times a few hours if not a entire day to figure a 
workaround for something you would develop in 20 minutes on a regular day with 
a more stable option..

I would not stay on it for very long if you are on an upgrade path from a lower 
version. I would get off it as soon as I could. In fact if you are on an 
upgrade path and have the ability to revise your roadmap, I would slate a 
upgrade to 7.6.x almost as soon as you had 7.5.x up and running..

That being said, avoid staying on 7.6.03 and the release version of 7.6.04 for 
too.. 7.6.04 release 2 onwards is fairly stable..

PS: I did recently discover a display type bug on edit masked fields of 7.6.03 
where the information in that field would be displayed as clear text under 
certain conditions.. I just thought I may share that...

I’m trying to replicate this – what are the exact steps you do to replicate it?

 

I have tried

1) Clicking on the drop down field to reveal the menu

2) Press Escape to cancel click on the drop down

3) Tried typing and nothing happens as it should be..

 

I am however on 7.6.03 – but is this the way you reproduce it on 7.5 patch 6?

Hello Fellow Listers,

 

I did open a ticket with BMC Support but I find that I can get my questions 
answer on the ARSList much faster so here goes.

 

I have a question for you “Is there a bug in the Mid-Tier 7.5 patch 6?”

 

We have a drop down menu on a Display Only form. If the user clicks on the 
field it will not let them type any value into that field. So far this is what 
should ALWAYS happen. However, if they select the drop down menu and then 
cancel it and the cursor is still in that drop down menu field the user can now 
start typing a value into that field. THIS SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN. 

It does not do that with the User Tool only the mid-tier and only for version 
7.5. Our Mid-Tier 7.1 version does not act in this manner. It works like it 
should the user can never type into the field only select from the drop down. 

Is there a bug in the MidTier Version/Patch- 7.5 Patch 6 that is allowing this 
to happen when it should not? 

Here is our Environment Profile: 
OS/Version-Windows Server 2008 64 Bit R2 Enterprise Edition Service Pack 1 
ARS MidTier Version/Patch- 7.5 Patch 6 
WebServer/Version- Apache Tomcat Server 5.5.28 
JSP Engine/Version- Tomcat 5.5.28 
Java Version - 1.6.0_30 32-bit 
ARS Server Version/Patch- 7.1 Patch 11 running on HP-UX B.11.31 U ia64 Server
