Thank you, Tony. The only criteria at present is that the control has received FOCUS via [TAB] from an upstream control within the Tab Order; or, alternately, via [BACK_TAB] from a downstream control. The goal is that the operator can see precisely which control has the FOCUS.

At present, I'm mucking about with Variable Radio Button, Variable Radio Group, and Variable Check Box controls, where, when all are left in an un-checked state, a distracted user has no immediate visual cue to follow.

Best, Bruce

Subject: Re: [RBASE-L] - Forms | Highlight Variable Control upon receiving focus

I'll be home in a couple of hours Bruce and have a look. Am I right in thinking that when you tab to the next object you are wanting to get property for hat object and then change the objects property based on certain criteria ?

What is the correct approach to altering the visual properties (text or object in-fill) of controls such as a Variable Check Box or Variable Radio Group when that control receives, and while it holds FOCUS?

In my Form design, I'm typically [TAB]bing between controls.

While experimenting with Object Properties, such as 'Effects' and 'Colors' via (F11), and, alternately, with their corresponding EEP-embedded PROPERTY commands, I've had no success. These latter attempts have been either embedded within upstream EEPs, or within the On Enter EEP of the control receiving FOCUS.

This failure obtains whether focus is passed via [TAB] or via SET_FOCUS.

Any cluse or perspective is most appreciated!

Best, Bruce
