I can reproduce the problem. Exactly as well reported.<BR>
It kind of only happens once. Bring up formsedit, click, left arrow(s), type, it does what Randy said.<BR>
Click again, arrows again, type again, not a second time. Good enough though.<BR>
Close formsedit, reopen, it repros. Good.<BR>
file.save, type backslash or forward slash in the dialog, press return, and boom:<BR>
Most other strings are ok, but a single forward or backward slash, booms.<BR>

He thought a Filter VBT may exist somewhere that would aid in debugging by printing method calls before propagating them to father/son. This filter VBT would be inserted at different places in the VBT tree to get tracing information. Are you familiar with something like this?<BR>> <BR>> As for the pixmaps, Michel suggests increasing the resolution of the original pixmap to help alleviate problems with upscaling. I may try this, but of course, FormsVBT uses a lot of pixmap resources, for example, radio, boolean, checkmark, numeric, etc all use pixmaps.<BR>> <BR>> Regards,<BR>> Randy<BR>> <BR>> >>> "Rodney M.
