I have a problem with value list. When I enter the text lines and I
press ENTER, instead to go to next line, box it's closed, like if you
click with mouse on OK button. This happen using both keyboard RETURN.
This happen with FM 8 adv. and FM 9 adv., after many months of normal
using FM.
I uninstalled and then installed again, applied patch, checked keyboard
settings, changed keyboard, SO is Windows XP Pro SP3 updated. Problem
still remain.
I called the FM service but they can not solve the problem.
If I create a runtime application, or use the file .FP7 on another
computers everything works properly. So it's a my internal problem. But
what ?
Someone has a suggestion to try to resolve the problem.
Thank you.
Try using the Tab key to place the system focus where you want it to
be. Even if an item in your value list is highlighted, it might not
be the focus. Look at the OK button. If it has a little-square
within-the-button, then it has focus and will activate when you hit
Enter. Hit the Tab key and watch carefully: that little
square-within-the-button will vanish, and the Cancel button will have
it instead. Hit Tab again: Value List Name is highlighted; hit Tab
again: Values radio button choice is highlighted; no
square-within-the-button in both cases. That's where you want the
focus to be for entering custom values.
hope this helps
