All:
(rbg11)
Apparently by default, a Form terminates when the [esc] key is hit; no
matter the setting of the ESCAPE operating condition.
But I'd like to capture an [esc] key-press within a Variable Edit
control, to direct focus to an 'Exit' push button control, thereby
avoiding Form closure.
Thinking that an On Key Press EEP might do the trick, after reading the
R:Syntax descriptions of the CHKKEY and GETKEY functions, and ensuring
that ESCAPE is set to OFF, I tried this:
IF (CHKKEY(0)) = 1 THEN
IF (GETKEY(0)) = '[027]' THEN
PROPERTY cid_pb_exit SET_ACTIVE_CONTROL 'TRUE'
ENDIF
ENDIF
RETURN
This fails; the Form terminates when I hit the [Esc] key. Using '[esc]'
also fails.
R:Syntax reports that the GETKEY function "Gets the text value, in
brackets, of the first key ..."
A "...text value, in brackets..." issue? A Syntax problem, perhaps?
Appreciate your help! Bruce
