I have an application in which I calculate a new date by adding a number of days to today's date. In my current implementation, I enter the days in a field, then hit a button to run the change date script.

Is there a way to just enter the days in a field and, by hitting the return key, start to run the script?

Hi Herb,

Are you still on FM 7? There are trigger plug-ins even in 7. Nowadays (with vs 11) it is simple OnObjectExit trigger.

But I wonder if there is even a need to script this ... can you describe why you are setting this manually instead of either 1) using an unstored calculation or 2) setting the value upon startup? We might be able to suggest other ways of achieving the same thing will less effort. :^)
