Dan,

When you say that it ignores your new input, do you mean the EDITBOX doesn't
accept your new input, or the RESULT of putting new stuff in the editbox
doesn't get to wherever you want it to go?

In other words, when you go back to the window with the editbox, is the
editbox cleared as you intended, or does it still have the same text in it?

If it's cleared, and you can enter new text into it, then something about
how you are getting the text from it and then using it is probably wrong;
if it's not cleared, then something about how you're clearing it is wrong
(in which case, can you hilight the existing text by holding the mouse
button down & dragging it over the first text, then type new text in and
have it be accepted?).

And, a quick sample demonstrating the problem would help us help you, too.
