Hi all,
how can I react to and "ENTER" in an edit dialog element?
To be more exact, after a user inputs some text in an edit field and presses "Enter" afterwards, I need to perfom a check.
How do I detect this "Enter" input?
Greetings Mike

The EXIT style will detect a focus change by Tab/Mouse but you probably need a button to for an Enter event. Try:

there is a button you can create on your interface that when the ENTER button is pressed, then it gets to work

i can't remember the syntax for that button, perhaps a search in the vds help file will help ... from memory, there is a reference there of how to do it

When you assign a Button the "Default" syle as above it will react to the Enter key.

didn't look at your code just your comment about EXIT and assumed your code dealt with that

Thanks - perfect,
thats exactly what I wanted - I didn't know about the "Default" Option.
