Hi Freaks

When I was "playing around" with our application, I found a strange error. Or it is feature?

In our old environment (UnifAce 9) we tried to use the "decrypt trigger"*) in some fields. 
After we have done this, we comment out the content of this trigger, as it was of no use to us.
All looks okay and the date-field was formted in the expected way 

Now I run this component in UF10 and what happend: The field is not formated, the end user sees the raw data.
I checked and found nothing special. 
Then I saw the trigger "formatFromDbms" with a simple comment as content. Just out of curiosity I removed the whole trigger and voila, the field was formatted.

Oops, whats going wrong here?
Fires an empty**) trigger not longer the default behavior?

From the documentation:
"If formatFromDbms trigger contains ProcScript, it is activated for each field of an occurrence:"

Does anyone else have a similar problem or is this really a new, undocumented feature?

Ingo

  *) We are talking about the decryption trigger, not the format/deformat trigger, which makes the "feature" even stranger
**) it makes no difference whether the trigger is filled wit comment or totaly empty
