Well, to make life easier I'd suggest setting up your #text members
such that (in the Property Inspector) their "Editable" and "Tab to
next editable item" checkboxes have been selected. That way TAB will
have this effect.
Using RETURN/ENTER is kind of nonstandard. While setting it up so you
can move from sprite to sprite is certainly possible, it's kind of a
pain and, IMO, requires considerably more scripting than it's worth.
You can trap RETURN / ENTER and beep; try attaching this to all your editables:
on beginSprite me
sprite(me.spriteNum).member.text = ""
end
on keyDown me
if the key = RETURN or the key = ENTER then
stopEvent
BEEP
else
pass
end if
end
This, sans movie script, will clear the #text members and prevent
users from accidentally hitting the wrong key.
