ays asterisks, and as well, only allows the input of numerics, because if you are displaying asterisks, it's not really practical to have multiple presses of a key mean something different. I would also propose since there is only one value for a key, that the cursor be moved along to the next digit automatically on the entering of a value rather than with the LEFT/RIGHT events. Those events should still move the cursor back and forth, but it should move from one input digit to the next automatically. Any thots on any/all of this? b. -- Brian J.
