Hi,

I have a Decimal-Fill-In-Widget with the format "-zzz.zzz.zz9,99" which I entered in the Application Builder.

During the programm-run it may necessary to change the format to "-zzz.zzz.zz9,9999".

How can I do this.

In the Programming Handbook there is the following example:
display widget-name format "x(20)".

But this doesn`t work.

I have Progress 9.1D.

Thanks.

But when I try to set the format I get the error, that the sixth char in the format string "-zzz.zzz.zz9,9999" is invalid.
error-msg 22 and 4058

If I set the format to "-zz9,9999" it works.

What should I do to set the big format ("-zzz.zzz.zz9,9999")?
