    fill-ins not sensitive after resize window

    Applying entry to the widget - row attribute (field) is a bit dirty instead realize a more generic solution and set focus into {&frame-name}. E.g. apply entry to {&frame-name} instead of hard coding the actual widget name. Can you see what I am advising? Work from there.

    On the resize trigger, move focus into the widget, eg APPLY 'ENTRY' TO /* your widget here */. Once focus (the curser) is on the widget, M$ Windows will take control from there.

    Length content of a combo box

    Indeed, it is just a visual representation through Windows for the attribute. The attribute ComboScreenValue is not limited by the widget length. The widget is resizable, the attribute length is NOT dynamic it is a static value.
