In the example code, I cannot get the tab key to move focus from one cell item to another.

Anyone know how to do this? (The arrow keys would do, just need keyboard navigation not just the mouse)

Thanks

Mark

Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim Column As ReportColumn
Dim RecordControl As ReportRecord
Dim rRecord As ReportRecord

Set Column = wndReportWaste.Columns.Add(0, "Group", 80, True)
Column.EditOptions.SelectTextOnEdit = False
Column.Visible = False
Set Column = wndReportWaste.Columns.Add(1, "Product", 80, True)
Column.EditOptions.SelectTextOnEdit = True
Set Column = wndReportWaste.Columns.Add(2, "SOT", 70, True)
Column.EditOptions.SelectTextOnEdit = True
Set Column = wndReportWaste.Columns.Add(3, "Inner", 110, True)
Column.EditOptions.SelectTextOnEdit = True

Set rRecord = wndReportWaste.Records.Add()
rRecord.AddItem "1": rRecord.AddItem "Paper": rRecord.AddItem "": rRecord.AddItem ""
Set rRecord = wndReportWaste.Records.Add()
rRecord.AddItem "1": rRecord.AddItem "Cardboard": rRecord.AddItem "": rRecord.AddItem ""
Set rRecord = wndReportWaste.Records.Add()

rRecord.AddItem "1": rRecord.AddItem "Glass": rRecord.AddItem "": rRecord.AddItem ""

wndReportWaste.AllowEdit = True
wndReportWaste.EditOnClick = True
wndReportWaste.Populate

End Sub

Thanks for your reply

I have added wndReportWaste.FocusSubItems = True
which nearly gets me there,

Because I have

wndReportWaste.EditOnClick = True

Tabbing into a cell item doesn't select the contents

Any Ideas?

Your code works fine for me, but I have 13.3.1.

Note you don't need to set SelectTextOnEdit for both column and item, if you want the entire column like that then just set the column. Only set individual items if you don't want all items in the column to have this behavior.

Ok, Well I can't just update every user with the new version yet.

We are on ver 13.0.0

do you know of any work about so I can Select Text On Edit after Tabing to the item with the above code.

Thanks for helping me out with this

Indeed, you are right, 13.0 does not behave as intended. I went back through and 13.1 is the first version to work correctly.

Here is a workaround I found to work OK, you can make the condition more strict, but here is the basic idea. You could just use selection changed if you always want it click\tab\whatever:

Dim bFocusChanged As Boolean

Private Sub wndReportControl_FocusChanging(ByVal NewRow As XtremeReportControl.IReportRow, ByVal NewColumn As XtremeReportControl.IReportColumn, ByVal NewItem As XtremeReportControl.IReportRecordItem, Cancel As Boolean)
    bFocusChanged = True
End Sub

Private Sub wndReportControl_SelectionChanged()
    On Error Resume Next
    If bFocusChanged Then
        wndReportControl.Navigator.BeginEdit
    End If
    bFocusChanged = False
End Sub
