Status: Unverified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 8.x
SYMPTOM(s):
CURSOR-OFFSET function fails to work as expected.
CAUSE:
Bug # 19950928-006
FIX:
In most cases referenced with the CURSOR-OFFSET bug, the desired behavior would be for the cursor to appear at the end of the Fill-In's Screen-Value. There by allowing for data entry without overwriting the initial value of the fill-in.
The default behavior is for the Disable-Auto-Zap to be False and so the Screen-Value is highlighted and the cursor is at the end of the text. Any entry will overwrite the value.
If Disable-Auto-Zap = True then any entry will be pre-appended the Screen-Value with the cursor placed at the start of the Screen-Values string.
