July 11, 201114 yr Obviously you need t be inside a field in order to enter data!!! However trying to enter data while not in a field causes filemaker to flash up a massage about needing to tab or entera field etc. etc. Is there a way to capture that error code (I think it might be errorcode 905) so I can replace the filemaker message with a custom dialog box explaining in my own words? Thanks John Before some tells me this is a double post - I tried posting and it said the service was unavailable so I waited and tried again - for some reason it took both posts. Sorry Johhn
July 11, 201114 yr You could use an OnLayoutKeystroke script trigger that checks to see if Get ( ActiveFieldName ) is empty. If [ isEmpty ( Get(ActiveFieldName) ) ] Show Custom Dialog[] Exit Script [False] End If I'd skip the dialog box though and just Exit Script [False].
