SET KEYMAP [ALT]M = 'Pause 2 using ''Keymap''[enter]' then press [ALT]M You have to remember that the result of a programatic action has to be used where appropriate. For example if you press [ALT]M while in a text field, the text field will receive 'Pause 2 using 'Keymap' and the [ENTER] key will be executed. Probably not appropriate for that location, so there is no indication that KEYMAP doesn't work, it is just usually used in the R> environment where all our legacy code resided. Now our forms respond to events and a keymap setup isn't tied to those events AFAICT. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "RBASE-L Mailing List" <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, May 15, 2008 2:31 PM Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Running a form with keystrokes? >I was never one to make much use of keymaps, but are keymaps still valid in > 7.6 where you could define them to a phrase?
