Browse - OnDblclick or InPlaceEdit
Posted: Sun Jun 08, 2014 5:40 pm
Sorry if this topic has been answered yet, but after some days looking in the forum I haven't found the solution wich fits my needs.
I want to use browse to 'browse' only two fields of a dbf (which has 10 fields), making the first one uneditable and the second one editable inplace. The user only should navigate downwards using ENTER key and only in this second field.
I've tried using EDIT INPLACE, which changes the field content, but the pointer remains in the same row.
I've tired OnDblClick, which changes the pointer to the next record, but if I want to change the field content I have to provide a separated control (textbox) to do it so. But this is not my intention.
I only want to use BROWSE, pressing ENTER to start editing in place the content of that field for the first record, and pressing ENTER again, leaving the field and moving to the next record and with that field just in editing inplace mode for this second record. And so on until the last record. With no other controls available for users.
Is there any possibility of merging these two functionalities? I am a complete novel programmer and I am missing good practices and easy practices, as you can see...
Thanks so much... and greetings from the sunny Spain!!
