Hi,
If you use MASK as aproperty of the window then it works fine. Also for the entry pictures have a look at key in paterns in the help.
This example work fine (a number followed by a capital letter.):
MyWindow WINDOW('Caption'),AT(,,260,100),GRAY,MASK
ENTRY(@K#^K),AT(116,33,60,10),USE(TheData)
END
