==== Edit Line Properties, "Default" Field (OpenInsight 32-bit Specific) ====

Hello,



Just made the move to OI7 and ran across my first problem.  I wrote a function to supply a default value to a field.  On the Edit Line Properties window in the "Default" field, I placed the name of my custom function.



Each time the focus switches to the field, the function is processed correctly but then the form crashes and the debugger opens with the following error message: "Eng0010: OIWIN_GOTFOCUS, Line 2. Variable has not been assigned a value."



I've tried this function on different fields, different forms and different applications, including SYSPROG.  I even wrote a very simple function to see if that might be the problem...same results.



I've made no changes to my system since installing OI7.



Any suggestions?



Thanks,

Charlie

So, when testing this


<code>
Subroutine TestDefault( Void )
</code>



<code>
RetVal=OConv( Time(),'MTS')
</code>



<code>
@ANS=RetVal
</code>



<code>
Return
</code>




we received the same error.  However, 




<code>
FunctionTestDefault( Void )
</code>



<code>
RetVal=OConv( Time(),'MTS')
</code>



<code>
Return RetVal
</code>




happily placed the time into our test prompt.
