johnrh Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 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
David Jondreau Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 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].
