INI problem

I have this very serious problem that it drives me crazy.

On my dbase plus PC I have selected components association in a way that in
BROWSE I do not have spinboxes for the numeric fields.

When in development everything is OK.

When deploying my appli the BROWSE has spinboxes.

I tries adding at the end of my appl ini file the following code

[ComponentTypes]
ComponentTypeNumeric
=1
ComponentTypeDate=1
ComponentTypeLogical
=1
ComponentTypeMemo=0
ComponentTypeBinary=
0
ComponentTypeOLE=0

which is also included in the plus.ini file but spinboxes are still there.

In the deployment ..\dbase\plus\runtime no .ini file is written.

I copied the above .ini file in the above folder (on my client's PC) but
still have spinboxes.

I would appreciate some help in removing the spinboxes from BROWSE.

Thank you

Just a thought, but did you try:

ComponentTypeNumeric
ForTables=1

? I don't know if this will solve this for the browse. This is one of
MANY reasons to not use browse objects, personally. They are outdated,
and it's possible that the runtime is not even checking for this setting
for the browse object.
