Hi everybody,

In my program, the database is display in a table with the popup trigger and the 
category. When
the user edits or renames a caterogy and the category name is long enough, it 
overwrites the title
of the form. Making the title shorter is not an option for me because my client wants 
that long
form title. I try to use CategoryTruncateName() but it doesn't work. I call 
CategoryTruncateName()
right after CategorySelect(). When I debug the program, right when I get out of 
CategorySelect(),
the long name's already overwritten the title.

// these are called when user tab on the popup trigger

//...
   categoryEdited = CategorySelect (listDB, frmP, ctlID,
                         lstID, false, &category, categoryName, 1,
categoryDefaultEditCategoryString);
   CategoryTruncateName(categoryName,CATNAMELENGTH); // truncate to 40 pixels so it 
doesn't
overwrite the form title
//...

Please tell me where I have to call CategoryTruncateName() or what else I can do to 
fix this
problem.
Thanks so much.

tnn
