Hi Claire,
If you are building a file name, you might need to watch out for more
than just linefeeds.
Filenames generally should be limited to letters, numbers, and
underscore (hyphen is usually ok too)
You can be strict about this using the keydown and rawkeydown handlers.
It would look like this:
On RawKeyDown pKey
Put "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890_-" into tCharList
If ((the commandkey is down) and (numtochar(pkey)="v")) or (pKey =
65379) then
Put the clipboarddata["text"] into tPastedText
Repeat for each char tChar in tPastedText
If tChar is in tCharList then put tChar after tNewPastedText
End repeat
Put tNewPastedText into the selection
Else
Pass rawkeydown
End if
End RawKeyDown
On Keydown pKey
Put "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890_-" into tCharList
If pKey is in tCharList then pass keydown
End keydown
A couple notes
1) it is untested, let me know if it does not work and I will fix it for
you.
2) 65379 is the raw key number for the insert key on a typical windows
keyboard. This might be different on your keyboard.
Good luck,
Jonathan
