Error description

• Environment:
  
   - Product name (Build ID or version/patch level): IBM Rational
  Business Developer v7.1.0.4
  Reproducible Y/N: Y
  
  Description of problem:
  
  
  When property autonext is set, focus doesn't move to next field
  
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  
  1) Create a form like
   record MyForm type ConsoleForm { formsize=[24,78] }
      * consoleField{name = 'text1' , value = 'Field1' , Position
  = [2,4]};
      * consoleField{name = 'text2' , value = 'Field2' , Position
  = [3,4]};
       t1 consoleField {name='t2', position = [2,10],fieldLen = 3
  , datatype='string', pattern= '##', autonext=yes};
       t2 consoleField {name='t3', position = [3,10],fieldLen = 11
   , DataType = 'date', pattern='##/##/####'};
  
  end
  
  2) Create a program like
      function main()
  
          myWindow WINDOW{name = 'myWindow', position =[3, 3]};
          myForm MyForm{};
  
    consoleLib.errorLine=10;
    consoleLib.commentLine=10;
    consoleLib.messageLine=10;
  
          openWindow(myWindow);
          displayForm(myForm);
  
          openUI
              myForm
              bind txt_t1,txt_t2
              OnEvent(ON_KEY:'a', 'ESC')
               SysLib.writeStdout('key pressed');
  
          end // end of basic openui
  
    SysLib.writeStdout('txt_t1='+txt_t1);
    SysLib.writeStdout('txt_t2='+txt_t2);
    ConsoleLib.clearWindow(myWindow);
      end
  
  3) Run it as RCP and type '123' into first field: cursor is not
  move to second field after '12' as expected from property autone
  xt and pattern
