Re: on returnkey doesn't work
you might also try something like the closeField handler. It is sent to the field whenever the user changed something in it. If you were to put one in the card script and check the target, it should tell you which field it was, although I have not tested it. -- Matthew Peterson Programmer Christa McAuliffe Space Education Center On May 5, 2007, at 4:11 PM, Jim Ault wrote: Using these two handler in a card script works fine: card script --- on returnKey go next end returnKey on returninfield put the seconds user hit return in the target end returninfield Without a returninfield override handler, then the tab on return as true on each field means that upon reaching the last visible line, the tab key will be the effect.

Re: on returnkey doesn't work
Guess I forgot to get back with the solution to my question; since it was really quite simple. I just has had to set the Tab On Return property of each of the Fields to true; now pressing return or enter functions the same as pressing the TAB key. Sorry... I believe it was Jim who proded me in the right direction. Joe Wilkins On May 8, 2007, at 2:44 PM, Matthew wrote: you might also try something like the closeField handler.

Re: on returnkey doesn't work
Using these two handler in a card script works fine: card script --- on returnKey go next end returnKey on returninfield put the seconds user hit return in the target end returninfield Without a returninfield override handler, then the tab on return as true on each field means that upon reaching the last visible line, the tab key will be the effect.

Re: on returnkey doesn't work
Sarah, you were included too. I just saw Jim's reply first. These damn eyes! For those of you who don't know, you might find it interesting to know that about 6 or 7 years ago my left eye developed a hole in its macula; so when I try to read that hole sometimes blanks out portions that I normally can see with my right eye alone. With just the left eye, I can see, but I can't read a thing. Very disturbing for one who has used his eyes as his most important sense.
