Prevent Dialog box: Before Typing, press Tab or Click...

To prevent the following message dialog ''Before Typing press Tab or Click in a field...'' on all of my layouts when a user types outside a field.

I found this suggestion that appears to work: (I put it as a script trigger ''OnlayoutKeystroke'')

If [code(Get(TriggerKeystroke)) = "27"]
Exit Script [Result: True]
Else If [isEmpty(Get(ActiveFieldname)) or PatternCount( FieldType ( Get(FileName) ; Get(ActiveFieldName) ); "Calc") > 0]
Exit Script [Result: False]
End If
I have no programming knowledge at all so I tried to more or less paste this code. It does not do anything on my layout so of course I'm missing something.
[Result: True]
and
[Result: False]
Are these only mere comments or part of the code? My formula builder will not accept these values at all.
My script so far looks like this: (but does nothing)
If [code(Get(TriggerKeystroke)) = "27"]
Exit Script
Else If [isEmpty(Get(ActiveFieldname)) or PatternCount( FieldType ( Get(FileName) ; Get(ActiveFieldName) ); "Calc") > 0]
Exit Script
End If
Also, Keystroke 27 seems to refer to the ESC key. I have no clue what it does here.
If anyone as the patience to help me on that.
