Set Default field in a form

[rebfein]

Hi there,



I'm wondering how to set the cursor to default in a particular field on a form.

In the form below, the cursor defaults to the first field, ID:. This is an automatically numbered field and does not need to be filled in.


I would like the cursor to be in the New Category field when the screen is opened from the main menu.

How would I do that?

set the ENABLED property of your ID field to NO or FALSE

it will be ignored when tabbing through fields. You can also set the LOCKED property to YES or TRUE

It's fantastic! Thank you so much.

FYI, if the control needed to be able to have focus, you could also set its Tab Stop property to No. It would be skipped over if the user tabbed around the form, but they could click on it.
