Hi all,

i have aproblem to set the cursor of a get to the very first position.
I tried the following

oSearch:bGotFocus := { || oSearch:PostMsg( WM_KEYDOWN, VK_HOME, 0 ), SysRefresh() }
oSearch:bGotFocus := { || oSearch:nPos := 1, SysRefresh() }
oSearch:bGotFocus := { || oSearch:SetPos( 1 ) }

All three methods work ok if the get variable is of type character.
But neither of these methods work if the get variable contains a date.

I put a small selfcontainted sample here
http://www.d-hoefner.de/files/test.zip

May be someone knows a workaround for this?

Thanks and regards,
Detlef

this might help :-

oSearch:bGotFocus := { || oSearch:selectall(), oSearch:nPos:= 1 }

Hoe,

many thanks for your hint.
Unfortunatelly it doesn' t work.

If i click into the middle of a get with a date variable, the cursor remains at the position where i clicked.
With character gets its working ok.

Thanks for your time, Hoe.

If you will build a reduced and self-contained sample of the problem then I promise to experiment with it a little.

Try this:

Code: Select all

oSearch:bGotFocus := { || oSearch:PostMsg( WM_KEYDOWN, VK_HOME ) }
