check the field locking.

from the docs:

If the control is an unlocked field or a button whose menuMode is "comboBox", the openField message is sent to it instead of the focusIn message.

A locked field receives the focusIn message when the user tabs to it or otherwise makes it active (focused), or when text in it is selected by a handler.


Hi,

i have problems with the focusIn message.

What i want to achive is to remember the value of a field
when the user is editing it (on focusIn). After that (on focusOut),
i would like to check the new value against the remembered one.
If they are different, the change has to be saved,
so i ask the user to do so when he's leaving the card.

I think the focusIn message is not sent because even something like

on focusIn
        beep
end focusIn

does not work.
Even the example in the dictionary is not working.

Obviously i am missing something here. Any ideas?

Regards,
        Claus.

BTW: It's 2.9.0 dp1 on a Win2k box
