Data Entry Issue - Highlighting the Hyphen in ANY field when selected

Is there someway that you can set all the fields to “select or highlight” the hyphen on the box when clicked on… Currently you have to delete the mark to add anything to these fields or the mark stays and generates an error for an invalid say part number. This definitely slows down data entry and makes for many errors which bring me to my next point… Can you improve the database error handling… Currently many part entry errors and similar result in the program “crashing” to a closure. You currently have to ensure the hyphen in the a box BEFORE you click out or the errors can happen. Not sure if this is the same for everyone but definitely is our experience.

Hello FourAlarm

If you tab into the part selection field, the - will be automatically highlighted so you can start typing what you want to jump to or use your arrow on your keyboard to start scrolling.
If you click into and the - is not highlighted, just backspace which will highlight it, and then you can start typing what you want to jump to or use your arrow on your keyboard to start scrolling.
