September 10, 200322 yr Is there a way to assign F keys to fields? Example I want the user to be able to hit the F4 key and it automaticlly puts the current time into a field I designated for time.
September 10, 200322 yr Hm, I don't know about assigning the F keys, but you can do the same by setting the field as a button and running a script when the user clicks on the time field.
September 10, 200322 yr The first 10 scripts are automatically assigned to the number keys (Command 1 to 0 on the Mac) It would be nice to involve the F Keys, and this may be possible with a plug-in, I'd guess. And now off your topic a little, but on key commands in general: I generally assign scripts to these keys (and by some strange coincidence it's the same order as the buttons I place across the top of my windows...) Command 1 - go to first record Command 2 - go to previous record Command 3 - go to next record Command 4 - go to last record Command 5 - New Record Command 6 - Edit Record Command 7 - Find Command 8 - Modify Find Command 9 - Show omitted Command 0 - Show All Obviously, you can do exactly what you want! I just offer my own personal 'standard' as something that is quite useful and almost universally applicable... If a function is not available of a particular layout, I either show a message or leave the key command unassigned. The worst thing I could imagine is having a key command do one thing on one layout and another on another - but then it is a Windows world .... ;-)
