Looking at what you posted you will notice that when the error was not reported you are connecting via WINDX whereas you get the error when connected directly.  You can tell this by the command line prompt -> versus -}.

If you have enabled WindX Turbo Mode (which is done be default in Nomads) duplicate CTL errors will not be reported back to the server but instead will be reported locally and reported only if the WindX setup enables local error reporting (default is not enabled).

WindX and Nomads are designed to maximize performance by running in Turbo Mode as no errors are anticipated.  This allow the system to run faster by not waiting for the WindX to report success or failure (much like UDP if you are familiar with that network protocol).

Must be due to an upgrade in pxplus that causes this perhaps due to object properties?  I dont know if any PRM would help you here.

Can you add an err=*NEXT  to your controls...    This must be some legacy code?

0010 BEGIN
0020 MULTI_LINE 115,@(10,10,10,10)
0030 MULTI_LINE 115,@(10,10,10,10),ERR=*NEXT
0040 ESCAPE

Using PxP 2022. My question concerns formatting of data in numeric cells in a grid. In Format Definition, I assign a numeric variable name to my column; e.g. Cost. In my supporting program, I set the cost's format mask with

let detail_box.ctl'Column$="Cost",detail_box.ctl'row=0, detail_box.ctl'cellformat$="######0.00-"

In the PxP documentation, the CellFormat property redirects to the documentation about multi-line Fmt$ property, which says "Before being output, the number is rounded to the number of decimal places specified in the format mask." But when I test, it truncates, not rounds. (By the way, the incoming value does not exceed the mask.)

Is there a correct way of having numeric grid cell data round instead of truncate?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the input.
I have not used line numbers in my code in many years, so changing line numbers doesn't bother me at all.  I also haven't used ED+ in many years, but I'll check it out and see if I can make use of it.  I really don't want to have to load individual programs to reformat them.  I would prefer to be able to process a whole folder full of source text at once.

Josh, you might want to check out the Eclipse plug-in.  Notepad++ is a good editor, but Eclipse is a full-featured integrated development environment which you can use at no cost.  With the plug-ins available (https://eclipse.sagemas.com) you get a decent editor and the ability to decompile programs, recompile with error flagging, a to-do list, very sophisticated search tool, integration to SVN or Git and much more.  You can automatically save your programs, classes and libraries to multiple locations such as a project space and a test system.

I'll let y'all know if I write something to format or if I figure out how to automate the existing ED+ tool.

Mike/Phil,

If I remember correctly with ED+, applications and programs that use line numbers would renumber not maintaining the original line numbers.  It's been a long while since I tried utilizing ED+ but it was too cumbersome to use with the application I modify and maintain.

I would LOVE to see an add-on to either Notepad++ or Visual Studio Code (Preferred) for PxPlus.
