Thanks for the exit bmp image. Having scratched my head over loosing push button focus on one of my multi-table forms, I appreciate the reminder on this topic. Additional steps have to be performed however in order to make it appear it is working seemlessly.
The clickable image in a push button on a multi-table form does not lose its focus in the form when you go from table to table within the form, but the eep associated with the image does not work when you switch focus from one table area to the next. Example of what will NOT work: Focus on Table1 with PushButtonImageA/eep1.eep - Eep1.eep will work Focus on Table2 - Eep1.eep will NOT work To make the clickable image work regardless if the focus is on table1 or table2 area do the following; Table1 area just has columns and variables located. Table2 area has a multi row region located. For each table in the form you must - 1. set the current table(Layout/Set Current Table/select table/Click OK) 2. locate the clickabe image and its EEP. Locate the 2 images one on top of the other making sure they are the same size, anywhere on the form that you want. The result is a form that looks great, the push button does not lose it's focus and the eep associated with the button works on every click ! Lets hope Razzak and the redoubtable RBTI team can make this a simpler task in future releases.
