Hi Gabriel,
Regarding your question about character replacement, you have to Track
the keyDownEvent and replace the Key Value in the event Queue. Try the
following code in your Form event Handler method,
if((event->eType==keyDownEvent) && (event->data.keyDown.chr=='-'))
{
event->data.keyDown.chr='.';
}
The code above will replace the '-' char with '.'
Thanks,
Manikumar K
