Hi Linda

This is typical behavior when you need to press a field exit key of some flavor to go on - we get the same thing when editing numeric values in DBU.

Maybe the older client had a setting for this, it'd be nice to have it, but my memory says that in PC5250 I still have to press field exit or field + or something like that.

Cheers
Vern

We have a dspf with the weirdest problem. This is only a problem with the ACS emulator. Old iSeries Access emulator is fine.

The screen only has one entry field, which is defined by referencing an 11p0 field. There is no edit code on the field and this dspf was created in 2000. In ACS if you enter a value and press enter or if you press any of the fkeys allowed, it throws error "Enter key not allowed in field". There is no way to get out of the screen. By chance, I discovered that if the cursor is moved to any place on the screen besides in the actual field, both enter and fkeys work. There is nothing out of the ordinary about the dspf. I finally tried adding an edit code to the field and now it works fine.

Has anyone experienced anything like this? This make me very leery about rolling this emulator out to our users. We have hundreds of display files and many of them are old and don't always have edit codes when they should. This application is also used by an external client and is fronted by LegaSuite (formerly JWalk) so I can't add the edit code without having to change the panel.

Thanks,
