Phillip,
>From the HELP for form properties: Autoselect Specifies that entire field will be selected (highlighted) when user lands on this I believe this is the answer you are looking for. In the form field, right click then go to the properties tab. Near the bottom under the Attributes make sure you check the autoselect box. As RAZZAK says, that's all there is to it! James Belisle Making Information Systems People Friendly Since 1990 From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Phillip or Anna Cecil Sent: Tuesday, December 17, 2013 6:55 PM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - Forms - selecting field contents We converted a test database form 7.6 to 9.5. In 7.6, when the user is in a scrolling region in a form, if they press [F8] to advance to the next row, the contents of the focused field is completely selected allowing them to press [Delete] if they wish to clear the field's contents. In 9.5, this does not occur. Is there a setting that controls this? If so, can someone tell us where to find it and set it so that we get the functionality we are expecting? Thank you very much, Phillip Cecil Wayne County Anesthesia Association Goldsboro, NC
