Albert, You are not a dunce for not being able to discover this.
I’m happy they are making that change.

It isn't every software vendor that will dunce proof their product. And yes, Bill, it sure was a bear to track down. I really don't know how the heck they found that.

The eep was firing, but the format mask was not changing. They very properly chastised me politely for wasting their time when the problem was that I had assigned a component ID with a trailing space. The eep did not work because 'cSponsorZip' is not the same as 'cSponsorZip ' I am now going over every component id in every form and making sure I have no trailing spaces. Thanks to RDCC staff - they are great people, and I am ashamed that I did not identify the simplest problem. Albert, That's a killer trying to track down, isn't it! Bill
