Subject Re: PasswordMaskEF.cc bug? From Lee Grant <camilee@nospam.comcast.net> Date Wed, 21 Feb 2024 03:17:25 -0500 Newsgroups dbase.getting-started Ken, et al, The fix is to add the "/" character in this isValid(nchar) method, which I've done here. Close and reopen dBASE and it will act like any other legal character and put a dot there, instead of the '/' character.     Procedure IsValidChar(char)        // Make sure entered key is alphanumeric        private returnValue        do case           case isalpha(char)                        // Letter?              returnValue = true           case char >= "0" and char <= "9"          // Digit?              returnValue = true           // if you need to allow others, add them here:           case char $ "!@#$%^&*()_-+/"               // Special characters <-- I added it at the end.              returnValue = true           otherwise                                 // Invalid?              returnValue = false        endcase     return returnValue endclass Lee On 2/20/2024 7:23 PM, Ken Mayer wrote: > On 2/20/2024 1:01 PM, Charlie wrote: >> Sounds like it may be something on Window's end. > > Honestly, I have no idea.
