...have you tried setting pfrm->focus before calling FrmDoDialog?
FldGrabFocus calls GrfSetState(false, false, true) as long as the field is
empty. and if pfrm->focus is the index of the field that you want to
receive focus, then when FrmDoDialog calls FrmSetFocus, it will in turn call
FldGrabFocus, which will set the autoshift state as long as the field has
the autoshift attribute and the field is empty.
