I am attempting to pick up the position of the mouse at the time of
a button press from an exit EEP attached to a from field. The button is
located at about row 20 on the form yet ISTAT('MOUSEROW') returns the value
1. The field with the EEP which uses the ISTAT function is on row 7. When
I press [Esc] to leave the process I get the following error. Note there
are no stored procedures in this database system.
-ERROR- Column or variable VAR STP_RETURN ouserow not found(2515)
The reason it is necessary to pick up the mouse row position from an
EEP is that when a form button is pressed the form handler processes an exit
EEP (if it exists) for whatever field the cursor was in at the time of the
button press before it processes the EEP associated with the button which
was pressed. If the field exit EEP checks field values for errors and
returns the user to the field in case of a null or erroneous value then the
form user can get stuck in a loop where a button press to exit the form will
simply return the user to the field the cursor was in at the time of the
button press. One could get around this by picking up the mouse position
from the field exit EEP and skipping error checks depending on mouse
position. Unfortunately it seems that the field EEP can't get an accurate
read of mouse position from the ISTAT function.
