I respectfully request that if your response contains FB code that you use 
the FB Editor's "find/change" to change all underscores to some other character, 
such as ΒΆ (Opt-7) or ? (question-mark),   before posting. -- Thank you.

I have been trying for some time now to learn how to extract the text from a 
Text Edit button after information has been typed in. I searched the FB 
Reference and Examples on Release 7, but have been unable to find an example of how 
to do this.

I suspect it has something to do with: DEF GETBUTTONDATA.

The closest I've gotten is   the Password +key filter demo (Examples /Release 
7), but this deals with Password Buttons, not Text Edit. Probably the Tag is 
wrong for Text Edit. I don't fully understand the parameters for DEF 
GETBUTTONDATA either.
