Hello!
[Quoted] I have a couple wierd things happening in my form and I was wondering if you could offer me any advice on how to fix these events.
Here's my list:
- I have an alert that displays when the user tries to exit the form. If they choose cancel it should just resume back to where they are in the form. However, clicking cancel causes the screen to shift over so you only see the right half of the form on the screen. I am not doing anything fancy here. All I am doing is calling a program unit to show the alert I have created. The alert is a 'Stop' alert with an OK and a CANCEL button. [Quoted]
- Why would pressing the enter key on a field cause a When-Button-Pressed trigger to fire on a button that doesn't even get the focus. I have a text field that a user enters in a value and hits the tab or enter key and it should stay in the same block and just execute some defined code. However, what I find happening is that the tab key works great but the enter key shows the current item and cursor item as being the text item the users types a value into but the trigger item is a button on another canvas that some how acts like it gets the focus and operates like it has been pressed when really it hasn't. [Quoted]
- Why would a form show non-base table items as being populated in the debugger but not in the block? This block worked properly until I changed some stuff so that the menu bar would be hidden and the main screen for the system wouldn't disappear when ever a second screen popped up.
If you can offer me advice on any of these wierd behaviors, I would greatly appreciate it. I am running out of things to try. I am sure thee must be something that I am doing that is probably not the right combination.
Thank you in advance!!
