Unable to add "Yes" text to buttons

Hello!

I have a question that I think might just be an error with my program and/or computer. I am trying to add a button with a value of "Yes". I am unable to do that. I can put anything else I want as the value of the button. I can even put "Yes" in quotes and have it work. If I just type the word "Yes", Robohelp strips it out and creates a skinny button with no text and no value.

I am completely confused by this. Has this happened to anyone else? Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I might be able to fix this? Thanks!

Hi FriscoRealFast. You could try using a custom image. They are easy to create and look a lot better than the standard ones.

I don't know how you are creating the button and what its purpose is but, when scripting, some text will be interpreted as a numerical value. Yes might be a reserved value along with OK, Cancel, No, and a few others. Let us know how you are running inot this problem.

In WYSIWYG, I selected Insert, Form Element, Button.

A button is inserted with the name "Button". When I double click on the object, I typed "Yes" into the "Button Caption" field. when I clicked Apply, OK and went back to my form, the button was skinny and had no text in it.

If I double click on the button again, I can type anything else I want into the object, just not the word Yes.

This is the code that RoboHelp generated for the button. Notice "value" is blank, as "yes" was somehow dropped.
