I would like to allow users to TAB from row field to row field without making it necessary to mouse-click on the next field after entering data. Some inplace controls such as the text edit capture the TAB key for internal use and don't give me a chance to use it for enforced focus actions.

Any ideas on how to produce this behavior short of redesigning all the inplace controls?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Use PreviewKeyDown event, EditMode property and ReportNavigator methods. :)

Try searching help files or this forum for those keyword to find more information...

sserge,

Failed to specify that I am using the latest MFC version. I can't see where the Navigator is documented for this version.

Is there a solution for the MFC version?

TIA, RonISAC

sserge,

I have found the references to GetNavigator(), so I will try that approach. I have also found references to the OnReportPreviewKeyDown() but there appears to be doc errors in describing the parameters. I am unable to find the navigator documentation, so I will look for an update in the future. Until then I will do some experimentation. Thanks for your help.
