Good morning Freddy,

First of all, you have to set the KeyPreview property of the form to
True. Then you can write a KeyUp event for the form like this :


procedure TPurchase_Frm.FormKeyUp(Sender: TObject; var Key: Word;
Shift: TShiftState);
begin
if Key = VK_TAB then
Key := 0;
end;

HTH,

Onderwerp: [IBO] Trapping the TAB-key


HEY All

I'm about to have my first program with IBObjects and InterBase up and
running.
But have run into a problem.

For one of the tables I just show the user one of the fields in a grid as
orientation.
The rest I edited through a TIB_Edit field, and the TAB key is used to
move between fields.

One of fields is of a special format, and I want to trap the TAB-key, in
order to do
some checking of the contens before proceeding.

I tried to use the different OnKey.... events, and also tried to catch the
error that occurs when the content is not complete.

But without luck.

I will be thankfull for any ideas.


Regards
Freddy
