Suppress "Before typing..." dialog?

[wintergreen]

I've been playing around with the OnLayoutKeystroke trigger.

Interestingly, the trigger works regardless of any layout object having focus-- as long as the window has focus, the trigger works.

While this is great, the pop up message "Before typing, press Tab or click in a field, or choose the New Record menu command." will still appear after the script runs, which is... weird, to say the least.

Is there a way to prevent this pop up?

hmm. Ok, I found a workaround, but it is not pretty.

If the triggered script has

If [ Get(ActiveFieldName)="" ]

Go to Field [global field]

End If

the warning does not show (although the keystroke is subsequently added to the field)

Also the field probably needs to be on the current layout

Delete the: Go to Field thing, but add:

Exit Script [ result = 0 ]

wow, that works! thanks
