I appologize in advance for my ignorance... I'm not a GUI programmer, have
never been a GUI programmer, and will probably never BE a GUI programmer.
Somehow, this doesn't matter to managment.
I'm writing a program used for data-entry. The vast majority of data will
be input using the number pad. What I'd like to do is be able to use the
enter key to move from one text field to the next, ie it starts at the top
field, I type a 1 <ENTER> and it moves to the second field, and so on, until
you get to the end, where enter fires off a function that submits the form.
I don't really understand all this talk about Accelerators, and looking
through the archives, I've seen several things that look useful, but there
doesn't seem to be any general agreement (that I can see).
I don't have all that many text fields, so putting an individual key trap on
each of the controls, that just moves focus to the next one, would be just
fine, I'm just not sure of the best way to do this. Any help would be
appreciated.
Thanks!
