Your way is fine. Later I will see if I can use API GetKeyState to capture
if the CTRL key is pressed in the RightClick EEP. I'll Let you know.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Can Rbase distinguish between a mouse click and a
[CTRL] mouse click?
I do have a work around, but perhaps there is a better one. I have bunch
on Variable Images on a form. I would like to be able to use a CTRL-Mouse
Click to pick and choose which ones to highlight, and then after they are
highligted, perform some action, ie print, fax, delete, etc.
My work around has been to place a 3d box behind each, and use the
property command to change the color of the 3d box with a right click. I
can then use the getproperty command to see which have been highlighted
and then do my task. Not quite as nice as using a CTRL-CLICK, to highlight
things (as is common in Windows), but it works.
How would you do it?

No. Only in the Designer. Actually, at runtime, a CTRL[Click] wouldn't
be
an event anyway. It's just a STATE of a control, Selected/unSelected.
Why don't you define exactly what you are trying to acheive, then an
answer
can be formulated if possible.

Hi Mike,
I may be a little slow...are you saying we can make a form respond to a
[CTRL]mouse click when the form is running? I don't see that option
anywhere
in the list of options when adding EEPS. I can see where I have those
options when I am designing a form, but I don't see any way to give those
options to the user of my applications.
