Since I finally have a Windows 8 computer, I figured I'd play around with the 
ROSK function.  Works fine working at the R> prompt.  

I can also build a form with a DBEdit on it, have an "on enter eep" with   
PROPERTY ROSK SHOW TRUE  , and it does bring up the keyboard, I can type on it, 
and it puts the output into the field.   However, what if I didn't want it to 
come up every time? 

I put a right-click EEP on the field to show it (although it seems to take 2 
right-clicks to bring it up, build 052013), but it does not put the value in 
the field.

I was thinking I could put a bit button with a hot-key Alt-K to "bring up 
keyboard", and put the show on that button.  I land in a field, press Alt-K, I 
get the keyboard, but the output isn't put into the field I'm on.  I suppose in 
theory you could pass in the componentID of your field to the button, and if 
you could somehow trap the keyboard results and use property to put it back 
into the field, but I don't think that's possible.

Is anyone using this real world and tell me how you use it?   

Karen
