Karen,
>>> I could easily make the button visible/invisible with an eep on entry into the row, but the form would load with buttons on all the rows (or not on any row), so you would not be able to tell glancing at the form which rows would have this button enabled and which ones would not. <<< You do not need to place the button on every row, simple place the button outside the scrolling region so the button does whatever needs done on the "current/selected record" on the scrolling region; using this approach, the button is enabled/disabled on row entry. I normally place whatever buttons I need outside the scrolling region; I can't seem to think of a form where I placed a button or buttons on every row.personal preference, I guess J Javier, Javier Valencia, PE O: 913-829-0888 H: 913-397-9605 C: 913-915-3137 From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Thursday, September 15, 2011 3:53 PM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - Ideas for buttons in a scrolling region? Using 9.1. I have a form with a scrolling region, and there is a field on it for Weight. For some of the rows, the user would type directly into the Weight field, but for other rows there are conditions where I will want to make that field uneditable and instead have a button on that row where they would have to click to bring up another form. I don't want to have an eep on entry/exit in the Weight field because of it not evaluating if I switch rows while staying in the Weight field. I could easily make the button visible/invisible with an eep on entry into the row, but the form would load with buttons on all the rows (or not on any row), so you would not be able to tell glancing at the form which rows would have this button enabled and which ones would not. The only thing I could come up with is defining a form variable that would result in either a blank or the words "Enter Weight", locate that in the region with a double-click eep on the label. It won't look very much like a button ... Anyone have any other ideas? Karen
