We have an application which has been developed in PowerBuilder 9.

The problem is we have implemented a window for changing the password. In the window we have a field for the old password. When we change that password via EXE, it doesn’t allow us to enter a password with more than 8 characters. But our existing password has 9 characters.

The following properties are checked:

  1. Old password field size. (There is no limit)
  2. Executed the application via PB 9 IDE (No issues, also I can do enter more that 8 characters).
  3. The problem only happens with the compiled EXE.
  4. Checked the desktop theme (No luck)

Is there any solution for this issue?

    Not sure why the text size may differ between the two versions, but if it is different perhaps you cannot enter all the text with the bigger font due to a disabled AutoHScroll property of the text field?

    I realize that the different display may come from the Windows classic style option from the General tab of the compilation properties.
