Hi Everyone, I 'm sorry if I have the incorrect subject Header but I saved the info to my datadrawer of email stuff I find interesting but only saved the message without the headers. So I do not know the name of the chap who sent the query. Here is his message: MUI 3.8 Textinput.mcc 26.5 This problem became evident in Microdot, and I tested it subsequently in the main MUI Preferences program as well. Any advice would be appreciated. 1) I have a textinput.mcc open. 2) I click on the external editor button. In the settings, the editor is set up as <path>/CygnusEd/Ed -sticky and the synchronous editing checkmark is ticked. 3) The editor loads up, with the contents of whatever was in the textinput window. 4) I edit the file, Save and Quit. 5) CED closes, system goes back to the textinput window which un-greys itself out and becomes editable again. However, the contents are exactly the same as they were before editing. 6) I click on external editor again, edit the file again in the external editor, Save and Quit again. 7) Again, the contents of the textinput.mcc field remain unchanged. 8) I can continue trying the external editor ad infinitum, but any changes done in the editor are not carried over to the textinput field. I suspect this may not be a bug in textinput.mcc itself, as I believe I *had* it working properly a few times, so it must be possible to get it to work. The below seems to work, so I don't think it's a CED problem: 21.BOOT:> echo >RAD:test Test 21.BOOT:> WORK:Utilities/Text/CygnusEd/Ed -sticky RAD:test <CLI waits while I edit file> 21.BOOT:> type RAD:test Test Testing. 21.BOOT:> Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? Here is my answer: The same thing happened to me. I had TextInput.mcc v26.4 in the Workbench:Mui/Libs/Mui drawer. I replaced it with version 13.49 from the Microdot/Mui drawer and it now works properly. The MDII drawer also has TextInput.mcp v13.49 and TextInputScroll.mcc v13.49 The Workbench:Mui/Libs/Mui drawer had these same two files but v26.2 and v26.4 I replaced these too those from the MDII drawer but don't know if this had a bearing also in solving the problem.
