David: Normally PROPERTY <ComponentID> SET_FOCUS 'TRUE' Should do the trick; you can also try the old "SKIP TO" command. Are you using tabs for the different pages? I have converted my multi page forms in the old versions to tabbed forms in 7.X and they work great. You can also try to place the components of page 2 in a container such as a panel or a group box and then on exit from the last field on page 1 do: PROPERTY your_container_id SET_FOCUS 'TRUE' PROPERTY your next_field_id SET_FOCUS 'TRUE' Just some ideas...

Blocker Sent: Friday, June 10, 2005 5:11 PM To: RBG7-L Mailing List Subject: [RBG7-L] - Moving from Page 1 to page 2 on multi-tab form I am converting a 3 page R:Base for DOS form to R:base 7.1. I'd like to set it up so that when the user tabs or enters out of the last field on page 1, the focus goes to the first field on page 2, as it did in DOS: these are heads down entry folks and extra keystrokes won't make them pleased. Right now, tabbing or entering out of the field puts the focus on the "Page 1" tab. I've placed a message on the form that pressing "[Alt}+2" will move directly to page 2 and put focus on the field. But is there a way to do it without that unusual, different, sequence breaking keystroke? I tried an ON EXIT eep with PROPERTY 1stCompIDOnPage2 SET_FOCUS 'TRUE' - didn't work. Ideas?
