The Headache Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 I bet this is an easy one but here goes... I want to, through a script, go to a specific field that already has data in it and have the cursor move to the end of that data. help would be appreciated!

The Headache Posted October 17, 2007 Author Share Posted October 17, 2007 Ooops! The plot thickens... That doesn't do it for me either. The most I can get is the field highlighted (whether I have "select/perform" checked or not[?]). I would like the courser to go to the end of the data in that field, so I can type another character without having to click in the field. Did I miss something? Thanks in advance...

AudioFreak Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Uncheck select/perform and it will work as you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comment Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Go to Field[] will place the cursor at the end of the field, provided that the "Select/perform" option is not checked, AND that the field is not formatted to "Select entire contents of field when entered". If you need your field to be so formatted, use the Set Selection[] step intead, e.g. Set Selection [ Table::YourField ; Start Position: Length ( Table::YourField ) + 1 ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Headache Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 NOW I got it. I did have the "Select entire contents of field when entered" checked. Unchecking that solved the problem. Thanks so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
