Isn't the case here, and the resource thing isn't it either (this is field contents that are displaying wrong... not buttons or anything like that). None of the fields are drawn when they're loaded with data, and the problem occurs when a certain subset of the fields are initially displayed. It doesn't seem to happen initially, but only after one set of fields is later hidden and another is shown in the same form. In other words, the field was already erased before it was drawn. The text pointer is also correct, since when the form is closed the field contents are all retrieved and the corresponding record updated. The record itself doesn't seem to change, so that leads me to believe that it's something between the stored text data for the field, and the displaying of the field. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Brian Smith // avalon73 at arthurian dot nu // http://www.arthurian.nu/ Software Developer // Gamer // Webmaster // System Administrator Inside every older person is a younger person wondering what happened. -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
