Hi.

I have a input by name with one field as a part of a dialog unbuffered. What I want to achieve is this:
When I enter the Input statement the field (leita) has a certain value. I want to position the cursor at the end of the field, and I want the value of the field NOT to be highlighted (selected). Something like:

Code

dialog attributes(unbuffered)
    display array p_d[rec] to listi.* attributes(count=norecs[rec], keep current row)
    .
    .
    .
 
    on action char_leit
       if leita is null  then
         let leita=cstaf
        else
         let leita = leita, cstaf
       end if
       next field leita
   end display
   input by name leita 
      before input
        call fgl_dialog_setselection(0,0)
        call fgl_dialog_setcursor(length(leita))
    end input
end dialog
 

Can this be achieved? In the code above, the cursor is never positioned at the end and using length+1 doesn't work either. If the field only has one character the character gets selected.

Best regards,

OK, I found out how this can be done.  fgl_dialog_setcursor(length(leita)+1) works only if the field is textedit.
