We have a customer using this old version of SB+ and they want modifications to a GUI screen to add a bunch of columns to a grid.  On the character screen, the first column is a dependent mv, and the second column is the controlling mv.  The prompt sequence on the screen has the dependent properly following the controlling mv.

When regenerating the GUI form from the character version, the dependent properly shows to the left of the controlling mv.  However, when modifying the form in the GUI Form Builder, the dependent shows up on the left in the form builder but is moved to the right of the controlling mv when the form is executed.

Is there a way to get this to consistently display the columns in the grid according to the prompt sequence in the screen definition?

A little more info: The controlling mv is a product #.  When the product # is entered, the first dependent (that we want shown before the product #) displays @CNT as a line reference.  Then the second and subsequent dependent columns are on the right of the product #.

Update: We found that under certain conditions, like running the screen from the GUI screen designer, the columns were arranged incorrectly.  However, running the actual process put the columns in the right positions.  So I guess this isn’t an issue after all.
