How to set insert file as default in Container?..

[ren]

Hi all,

When we double click on a container field in a form, it's by default bringing us to the "Sound record" dialog box. However, for my case, I don't want that to happen.

Can we actually change the default from "Sound recording" to anything else, eg. inserting file, so that anyone can easily double click on the container field to insert the file?

Thanks in advance everyone........

Rgds,

Make the field into a button, make the button perform the Import Picture (or whatever it's called) script step.

This won't catch people who tab into the button... you can renmove it from the Tab order to force people to use the mouse.

i am having the same problem and tried this method, yet when i go into browse mode and click...nothing happens at all?..am I doing something worng?

If you do it exactly the way described nothing happens indeed,

that was also my experience.

Apparently a preceding step is needed.

So I made a short script first, called "Insert picture into containerfield":

Go to field (containerfield)

Insert Picture

Then in the Layout I made, as Vaughan said, the containerfield into a button:

Perform script (Insert picture into containerfield")

This works all right.

I think this is what Vaughan ment, and what Ren did before.

If they know a shorter way to do it, of course I would also like to hear about it from them.
