APPLIES TO

This article was previously published under Q136154

SYMPTOMS

When the Format property of a text box residing on a form is set to M, the DblClick event is not executed when the form is run. Setting the Format property to M allows for multiple preset input masks to be used in the text box.

For more information on this setting, please see the "Format Property" topic in the Visual FoxPro Help file.

WORKAROUND

Execute the code during a Click event, or use a combo box in place of the text box.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. This problem has been fixed in Visual FoxPro 5.0 for Windows.

  3. Add a WAIT WINDOW command to the Text1 DblClick event procedure.
  4. Run the form, and double-click the Text1 box. The Wait Window fails to appear.
