Hi,
Sorry once more to post another question!
I have 3 edit's
CONTROL f5,@EDIT,"",200,35,30,25,0x50800000|@TABSTOP|ES_NUMBER,914 'Date1 D
CONTROL f5,@EDIT,"",232,35,30,25,0x50800000|@TABSTOP|ES_NUMBER,915 'Date1 M
CONTROL f5,@EDIT,"",264,35,54,25,0x50800000|@TABSTOP|ES_NUMBER,916 'Date1 Y
and I want to be able to tab between them:
so I use "ENABLETABS f5,1", so far so good.
But - I also want to detect when the user presses <Enter> on control 916 (the last one)
so I use "SETCONTROLNOTIFY(f5,916,0,1)"
They both work on their own, but if I include "ENABLETABS f5,1" then "SETCONTROLNOTIFY(f5,916,0,1)"
does not work.
If I remove "ENABLETABS f5,1" then "SETCONTROLNOTIFY(f5,916,0,1)" works? ???
are they mutually exclusive OR more likely I'm doing something wrong?
Thanks,
Andy.
I'm assuming f5 is a window since you are using ENABLETABS.
The OS does not support tabbing in a window, just dialogs.
ENABLETABS sets an element of IWB's internal WINDOW structure. With special internal coding IWB simulate, in a window, what happens normally in a dialog.
Evidently, there is a conflict between the coding associated with ENABLETABS and SETCONTROLNOTIFY that gives you what you are seeing.
The solution is simple as demonstrated by the following code:
window f5
openwindow f5,0,0,640,400,@caption|@SIZE|@sysmenu,0,"Andy21",&mainwindow
CONTROL f5,@EDIT,"",200,35,30,25,0x50800000|@TABSTOP|@CTEDITNUMBER,914 'Date1 D
CONTROL f5,@EDIT,"",232,35,30,25,0x50800000|@TABSTOP|@CTEDITNUMBER,915 'Date1 M
CONTROL f5,@EDIT,"",264,35,54,25,0x50800000|@TABSTOP|@CTEDITNUMBER,916 'Date1 Y
SETCONTROLNOTIFY(f5,914,1,0)
SETCONTROLNOTIFY(f5,915,1,0)
SETCONTROLNOTIFY(f5,916,1,1)
setfocus f5,914
waituntil iswindowclosed f5
end
sub mainwindow(),int
select @MESSAGE
case @IDCREATE
centerwindow f5
case @IDCONTROL
if @NOTIFYCODE = @ENTABKEY
select @CONTROLID
case 914:setfocus f5,915
case 915:setfocus f5,916
case 916:setfocus f5,914
endselect
endif
if @NOTIFYCODE =@ENENTERKEY
select @CONTROLID
case 916
messagebox f5,"ENTER key pressed","",0
endselect
endif
case @IDCLOSEWINDOW
closewindow f5
endselect
return 0
endsub
Thanks Larry,
Yes, your solution was quite simple and thanks.
I have put into action on one screen that has only 5 edit controls and works correctly, however the main screen has 30+ edits so I have to decide now do I keep the Enabletabs and do without the <Enter> facility or do I re-code the main screen.
Anyway, once again Larry - Thanks!
Andy.

You can add one little block of code (if all your edit controls are in order) to take care of tabbing.
int x
for x=914 to 944
SETCONTROLNOTIFY(f5,x,1,0)
next x
You could maybe expand the above to 3 loops(one of tab only, one for enter only, and one for both)
You'd need to make sure the numbers fell correctly.
or you could just add some if statements for the ones that needed something other than just tabbing.
case @IDCONTROL
if @NOTIFYCODE = @ENTABKEY
x = @CONTROLID
if x >= 914 and x<=944
x++
if x>944 then x=914
setfocus f5,x
endif
endif
if @NOTIFYCODE = @ENENTERKEY
...
Thanks Larry for that idea,
Good one, as it happens it only took me about 30 minutes to do it the long way around, but might save someone else a lot of time.
But much appreciated!!!
Thanks,
Andy.
