reporting a bug?

[larry at significantplanet.org]

Hello,

I've just spent about 3 hours trying to debug my program and finally found out:
There is a problem in the IDE, but when I compile, the problem goes away.

I am creating several fields using "the templateField" and "create field"

I set the locktext to false for all the fields - both in the templateField and after they are created - just to be sure. (Originally I just had: set the locktext of the templateField to false)

Each created field has its script set to a master script that has an openField command in it.

When I open the IDE and create my fields, and then try to click in a newly created field, nothing happens.

I found out, just by trial and error, that if I first drag a button or field using the tool bar on to my stack and then delete that button or field and then create my fields, everything works as it should.  However, if I PROGRAMMATICALLY create the button and then delete it, I still cannot click in a newly created field.

So after 3 hours of stuff like that, I finally compiled my program and everything works fine.


I am just reporting this to the list because I'm not smart enough to know if that is a bug or not.  But if anyone was experiencing anything like that, then you now know what happened with me.

btw, I'm using 6.6.3 on an XP machine.
