Dialog Programming Issues

[billashw]

I’m noticing some anomalies with dialog programming. First, the dialog workshop does not display. Instead, selecting the workshop from the menu bar retitles my procedure window starting with “Dialog Workshop…” and displays a MagicFormWindow error:

Secondly, if I manually code a simple rundialog loop the dialog form displays and dismisses correctly, but text edit box tabbing does not occur correctly (ie, will open the first TEO but not advance to the next); This despite the fact that tabbing works correctly on the form when it is opened outside of a dialog context.

Anyone else encountering issues like these?

Yes, I was able to duplicate and fix this.

I cannot duplicate this, tabbing works fine for me.

Thanks for looking into this! In exploring the tabbing issue some more I’ve determined that if the Sheet option in rundialog is TRUE tabbing works fine. If it is FALSE or omitted I encounter the tab problem. I’ve now reproduced this both in my original database and my simple test database.
