Thanks Carl
You put me on the right track - a csDesigning conditioned call reset the
mask
Just as an aside The TFieldDataLink is a globally used component but TDBEdit
uses FModified - a private
variable the B#$%**
You would think that is the VCL coders had to make direct reference to a
private variable they could at least write
a function to access it
