How about drawing a red rectangle around the field:

On mouseup whgichone
global field2delete
if the controlkey is down then
   if whichone = 3 then
     put "xyz" into field2delete
     addBorder field2delete
end if
else exit to top
end mouseup

on addBorder field2delete
  put the rect of fld field2delete into cRect
  create grc "fBorder"
  set the style of grc "fBorder" to rectangle
  set the rect of grc "fBorder" to cRect
  set the penColor of grc "fBorder" to red
end addBorder


and then

on deleteKey
global field2Delete
if intersect(fld field2delete,grc "fBorder") then
hide fld field2delete
delete grc "fBorder"
end deletekey

Cheers,

Mark

Hi Bob,



Hi Klaus



Ok I thought of another thing.
I'm playing with this one.... It seems quite nice. IMHO :-)

On mouseup whgichone
global field2delete
if the controlkey is down then
   if whichone = 3 then
put "xyz" into field2delete
set the bordercolor of fld field2delete to "red"
--this should make the border red but it does not???
--Q? any idea what the edge of a field is called? I tried changing all the
--colours to red without any luck
         end if
else exit to top
end mouseup

-- so pressing the right key when control is down puts the field into the
--variable

on deletekey
global field2delete
if the bordercolor of fld feld2delete is "red" then
hide fld field2delete
end deletekey

--deletes the field only if the border is red :-)

on escapekey
set the bordercolor of fld field2delete to empty
end escapekey

--escape key clears the border colour so the delete key wont work :-)


But now the problem I cant see the edge of the field being red but I can see it red in the object inspector. What is the boundary of a field cazlled if it is
not the border colour?


Cheers
Bob
