Dear Vixens and Reynards:
Once more, I am doing battle with the form event model. I did
not want a fight, but it appears that I have one.
I have validation on fields. What I want to do is be able to
turn this off until the form is ready for user input. How can I do this?
One possibility that I have thought of is using Form::KeyPress
to detect the first keypress. I do not think that this will work,
because I have to have a keyboard command in one gotfocus to handle a
VFP bug. (I actually have to move off the field then back on,
because otherwise, the cursor does not get set to the part of the
field that I want (the day part of a date).
I have a flag property that I use for determining whether to do
validation, and it works fine during normal use. During
initialisation, with all of the events firing, it does not work. I
think it would *IF* I could determine where I could reset the flag.
Any ideas what I can do here?
Sincerely,
Gene Wirchenko
