I am trying to develop an 'intelligent' data input form. The specific requirement is for an entry in something that looks and behaves like a single line edit control (but not listbox or combobox) to trigger initialisation of another control or controls, once the user leaves the initial control via tabbing or mouse-clicks to another control ie the initial control loses focus. (In much the same way as Excel updates cells linked to the cell just edited when that cell is exited via the enter, tab or arrow keys).
As far as I am aware, no controls at all recognise the tab key as an event, and an isigraph control is the only control that recognises focus and lostfocus events. The desired behaviour could be achieved by using isigraph controls for any fields intended to behave 'intelligently' but this seems a lot of work for something that could perhaps be more easily achieved. Any thoughts or suggestions? Internal Virus Database is out of date.
