I've have a couple of apps that are similar and run without a problem.
Check to make sure you are not returning true in your event handler when you
should not be. This would prevent the OS from further processing pen input
data in the fields. Without some code or a more detailed explanation, I
can't offer any further help.

Subject: Field won't allow input?
>I had a working form with a couple of input fields in it. I needed to add

>partition the form into multiple "pages". What I did was to put a one-row,

>down the page one UI objects on the empty form, the page two objects on top
>of the page one objects, and the page three objects on top of the page two
>objects. In the code, I made a tap in column one of the "page" table do a
>FrmHideObject on all the objects in pages two and three, and a
FrmShowObject
>on all the objects in page one (and similarly for the other two pages).
