Hello all,
I'm writing the code for the last form for my application. I'm testing
it on pose.
It consists of a field, which takes up nearly the entire form and a
"done" button. All I want to do is take some text input from the user
and store it someplace.
Through pilrc, I set the following attributes for the field:
FIELD ID 5001 AT (4 16 152 124) USABLE EDITABLE DYNAMICSIZE UNDERLINED
MULTIPLELINES HASSCROLLBAR
When the form pops up, I can see the field because of the underlines and
I can manually set its focus.
Now, here's the problem: When I try to type text into it, or use
graffiti or the palm keyboard, all I get is beeps with no text showing
up. What needs to be done to be able to get text to show up? According
to the 'dummies' book, the system allocates memory itself, so little
needs to be done by the programmer.
I've looked around for examples as to how to get text entered into a
field. Is it supposed to happen automagically or do I have to be VERY
explicit in the forms event handler? There seems to be nothing stated
explicitly as to how this is to be done.
Any help would be appreciated.
John
