I realize you may be using shorthand for the actual code but if you're trying to use the RETURN <object> syntax to avoid the setfocus restrictions, you will need to use the full object hierarchy (i.e. RETURN thisform.mycontainer.mygrid.mycolumn.text1).
BTW I have used this tip quite successfully to put the focus on a control other than the next one in the container TAB order. -- rk -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kurt Wendt Sent: Wednesday, June 19, 2013 1:33 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: A Focus Problem - Not a Lack of Concentration! Nope - the SetFocus - I only put it into the LostFocus Methods of Style & Color fields. When I put it in there - CRASH - take it out - No Crash! I looked at the link below - and I tried to follow this one suggestion - his alternate to SetFocus - with a command like (in the end of the Valid): RETURN ThisForm.Text1 Now - previously I was trying something similar - using just the number 1 - as was talked about in a previous thread here. And, it didn't work. So - I tried the suggestion above - putting in the Object name as shown above - and, of course - guess what!?!? It didn't work! Man is this frustating. So - for now - just so I could Move On - I did the Kludge. At the end of each valid - for Style & Color - I just turned Enabled to False for those Text Boxes - and sure enough - that worked. Problem is - if user wants to go back and Edit those fields again - they can't! But, I may worry about that at a later time... -K- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/DF1EEF11E586A64FB54A97F22A8BD0442280B39D4D@ACKBWDDQH1.artfact.local ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
