Well, in fact it doesn't matter. the EEP does not run on exiting the combobox in the scrolling region, it doesn't run either when I set it to run on exiting the scrolling region.....this happens only when the form is in the 'enter' mode. The combobox is the only field in the scrolling region.
No problem when the form is in the "edit" mode. So, if I create a new consultation and I want to input the consultdetail right away, the EEP does not run. If I close the form first, and the re-open it in the Edit mode, all works well. Thank you for your help, Luc Delcoigne ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: RBASE-L Mailing List Sent: Tuesday, June 01, 2010 3:24 PM Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: scrolling region problem enter/edit form mode Luc: It isn't clear from your message. You say "on exiting the scrolling region an eep must be run", but later mention that the eep doesn't run "on exiting the combo box". Let us know exactly where the eep is run -- is it on exit from the combo box? If the eep is on exit from the combo box, is your combo box the last field in the scrolling region? These things will give us some clues to help. Yes you're correct -- hitting the "enter" key when you are doing an "enter using" will create a new row. You must hit the F2 key or other options to insert a row when doing "edit using". It has always worked that way, going back to early DOS days. Karen I have a form 'Consultation' based on a table 'Consult'. In this form I have a scrolling region with combobox. The scrolling region is based on a table 'consultdetail'. Table 'consult' and 'consultdetail' are linked via the field 'Consultnr' in a one to many relation. On exiting the scrollingregion an EEP must be run. Now I have the following problem: When I open the form in editing mode, the EEP runs as it should. When I open the form in 'enter' mode, I can enter data in the combobox, but on exiting the combobox, the EEP does not run. I also remarked that in "enter" mode I can use the 'Enter'key to exit a row en create a new row in the scrolling region. In editing mode however I have to use the F2 key. Any ideas ? Luc Delcoigne
