Hi,
Tried what you suggested, the invalid values still gets saved. I know
the closeField gets called because I hear the beep. I put a
breakpoint on both all three handler, mouseUp, NewMouseUp and
closeField and when the done key is pressed it enters the mouseUp
handler BEFORE closeField, so the old value gets saved. It pot luck
if the closeField function gets called at all in the case, I am guess
that it depends on timing, if the script gets run before the close
stack command is issued.
This really is silly, what I want to do is so straight forward, I
just cannot understand why it is so difficult in RunRev? Am I missing
something or is it impossible to range check a field without jumping
thru hoops?
Thanks a lot
Dave
You can also try this in the "done" button:
On MouseUp
Send DoThisScript to me in 0 seconds
End MouseUp
Then put the original mouseup script into a DoThisScript handler in
the button. This will ensure that the script runs after other
handlers.
However, it seems odd that mouseup would be occuring before
closefield. Is it possible that your "done" button is non-focusing?
This would mean that when you press the button, the focus never
leaves the field you were in, thus not sending a closefield message.
If this is the case, you need to make sure your button is focusable.

Hi Dave,
May be another approach, more ergonomic, could help you:
Just allow numbers to be typed into your field with a generic handler
like the following:
on keyDown pKey
if pKey is an integer and the number of chars of target < 3 then
pass keyDown
end keyDown
It's only to get you started: you will find you have probably to
build a rawKeyDown handler to be more precise and manage the current
selection (if the user selects a portion and wants to type in).

I have the a number of fields in a card that have to be range
checked, to do this i have the following code:
on openField
set the cpSaveTextOfMe to the text of me
end openField
on closeField
if (the text of me < 0) or (the text of me > 999) then
set the text of me to the cpSaveTextOfMe of me
select the text of me
beep
end closeField
There is also a "Done" Button that has this script:
on mouseUp
save this stack
close this stack
end mouseUp
If I enter an invalid number and then click in another field, I get
beep and the contents of the field are restored and all is well.
However, if I enter an invalid number and then click the "Done"
button, it looks like the "mouseUp" handler is run BEFORE the
"closeField" handler. Since the value stored in the stack is the
invalid data. Is this the correct action? If so, what is the best
way to make this work so that bad values are not saved in the
stack. I really don't want to have to validate all fields from the
"Done" and other buttons on the card.
