FW: display problem

[GCC Consulting]

Top Post:

Original location of this field was at 19,16 on the screen.

Moved it to 17,74 and the field display properly.

However, field 50 which was at the above position was moved to 18,52
(protected) and this field does not display until returning to this record.

Have an option to that does a browse lookup and update certain fields from
the selected file.  The lookup is done in a sub-routine which uses the
records record number as the key for the lookup.

My problem is that all of the fields except a 4 character encrypted field
display after the display command is issued.  The original value in this
field remains.  If you move off this record and then return, the encrypted
value is there.

The original line was:
 If:
Then: 17=foobar(14);display
If:
Then: CLEARS;CLEAR;END

I then added:

If:
Then: video sync;17=foobar(14);display

The visible value still does not change on screen until one move off and
returns to this record.  With the debugger I know that the field has
changed.

When I step through the debugger, the encrypted value appears in the field.
When I end the debug session, the value returns to the original value.

Anyone have a clue as to why this field may not be displaying the proper
value?

A larger encrypted field value does display properly as it is brought in at
the same time.
