SETUP keyboard keys (OpenInsight 32-Bit)

I need to load a shift-6 (the ^) followed by an (cntl-m). I want to load the string into either the uparrow key or one of the function keys. This process allows the user to go back one data entry field with one key stroke rather than having to enter the two keys separately. Any help for me. Thanks, Roger

If your data entry fields are edit lines, boxes etc, then Shift-Tab can be used to go back through the controls, tab goes forward.

An alternative is to add a hidden menu to the form, apply an event to the menu to perform your function, and specify the Function key.

Or, if you already have menus, dont make it hidden.

Using the up-arrow key could be tricky, as if you are in an edit box, or edit table, then this keystroke is used here for navigation.

Thank you, but I am using CTO basic and just need to slam two characters into one key for user convenience. shift-6 (^) followed by the key (^M)… Converted from mvBase and was able to replace the up-arrow key with these two characters. Loading a function key would work fine for now.

Roger,

See pages 88 - 91 in the CTO Quick Start Guide. This document is located in the documents folder within your OpenInsight directory.
