There is a DataSet , with a β Double Precision β type β Number β field with an attached DBEdit , before inserting a value into this field, another β Main β field is filled in and a calculation is made which can result in a negative number.
Based on a negative value, I need to score one β-β in the β Number β field.
I cannot insert the β-β sign into the DataSet , so I have to use DBEdit and score β-β there, but when I use the Tab button or the mouse, I switch to the Number field (to score a value) the β-β sign is killed. I would like the β-β sign to remain after I have entered the field with the cursor in order to score only the value (as a result, the value will be negative).
You can of course use the normal Edit , and after entering the value in Edit, transfer the negative value to the " Number " field, but somehow it does not look good.
