Hello !

" self:oDCbBrowser1:CurrentColumn:=1
self:oDCbBrowser1:Edit() // You could skip this... "

This is a very interesting idea. ( skip edit ) I was working with
bbrowser
in "edit" mode and when i need help for search some code
(Ej product, customers ) I pressed enter in an empty field and thus
opened
a help window, very complicated


What would be a good way to help my clients
search code, calling a help window , working into a bbrowser
without the edit mode , when they arrive in a cell that needs a
Search help ?

Best regards
Jorge Accinelli






I press enter in the empty field
openning a windows. Very complicated

Not complicated at all!

I basically never allow editing in a cell (only some very special
circumstances) so this is how I approach your requirement:

1. If the user double-clicks cell (to prevent accidental single click
etc)
2. Launch a small browser dialog with options.
3. If the cell was empty - go top - else seek the value
4. Let user look up stuff or select or enter some new value
5. If they select, put the value back in the browser cell
6. Refresh the browser.

Hello, Geoff

Thanks for your reply. I remember your advise
avoid editing in a browser. But it's so powerfull bBrowser ..
Double-click is a good idea, but I prefer
avoid the mouse in such situations and
use some keyboard lauching the same behavior
(Press any key without triggering the start of the edition)

Best Regards
Jorge

Hi Jorge,

I understand - I merely offer the alternate. However you can still do
the same thing with the Enter key (I guess instead of the TAB key). The
trouble my users had was realising that cell change mode and cell edit
mode all had different behaviours for enter and tab as they must have. I
just try to avoid this kind of confusion.

Plus we are in SQL. All that automated editing is to be avoided if
possible.

Geoff
