Edit Mask edit style (code 90)

The following tables show a sample row in the PBCatEdt table for
an EditMask edit style and the meaning of the values.

About the example

This example shows an Edit Mask edit style using a code table
of display and data values as part of a spin control. Rows 2 and
beyond exist in PBCatEdt only if the edit mask is defined as a spin
control (bit 29 of Flag is 1). Rows 3 and beyond exist only if the
optional code table is populated.

For information about using an edit mask as a spin control,
see Displaying and
Validating Data.

Name	Edit	Type	Cntr	Seqn	Flag	Work
MyEdit	Format	90	1	1	Flag	DtFcKy
MyEdit	Range	90	1	2	0	SpinInc
MyEdit	Display1	90	1	3	0

Value	Meaning
Format	Display format mask.
DtFcKy	Concatenated string with 1-character data-type code, 1-character focus-rectangle code (0 or 1), and 1-character accelerator key. Data type codes: Format String = “0” Format Number = “1” Format Date = “2” Format Time = “3” Format DataTime= “4” Examples: “10x” means format is Number type, focus rectangle option is unchecked, accelerator key is “x” “31z” means format is Time type, focus rectangle option is checked, accelerator key is “z”
Range	Character representation (in decimal) of spin control range. The min value and max value are tab-delimited. Example: “1[tab]13” means min = 1, max = 13
SpinInc	Character representation (in decimal) of spin increment.
Display1	Display value for first entry in code table.
Data1	Data value for first entry in code table.
Display2	Display value for second entry in code table.
Data2	Data value for second entry in code table. Display and data values are repeated in pairs for each entry in the code table.
Flag	32-bit flag. Low-order four hex digits are generic edit type; high-order four are styles within the type. A 1 in any bit indicates the corresponding style is checked. A 0 in any bit indicates the corresponding style is unchecked. Bit 31: Required Bit 30: Autoskip Bit 29: Spin control Bit 28: Read only (code table option) Bit 27: Use code table Bit 26: Not used (set to 0) Bit 25: Not used (set to 0) Bit 24: Not used (set to 0) Bit 23 – 16 (2 hex digits): Not used (set to 0) Bit 15 – 8 (2 hex digits): Always 0 for Edit Mask edit style Bit 7: Always 0 for Edit Mask edit style Bit 6: Always 0 for Edit Mask edit style Bit 5: Always 1 for Edit Mask edit style Bit 4: Always 0 for Edit Mask edit style Bits 3 – 0 (1 hex digit): Always 0 for Edit Mask edit style
