No soft keyboard on A1000?

Hi, I've just started using OPL on my new beloved A1000. Having read through the manual and jumped in, I've managed to set my project up but am unable to launch the on-screen keyboard - only method of alpha/num input. I click the relevant icon on the status bar, it flashes and then... nothing. My assumption is that my application window is miles above the window the keyboard is in. (have only spotted "gORDER" which only seems to work with windows created by my application. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Grant

We need to put on the screen a "text filed", or how you call it; I'm still trying to understand how (if possible) to put any control (labels, buttons, text boxes...) on the screen, but I can't find anything. Looks like the only way to allow virtual keyboard input is using standard dInput dialog (quite tricky to be used...).
