Fires keypress event of column text1 in grid

[koklimabc]

I'd one problem with grid when I press "Enter Button" in text1 under columns 3 simply doesn't fires anythings because grid doesn't
support keypress event at all.

How to make it to works if I directly define procedure in .PRG ? I'm doing under VFP6.0 not VFP9.0.
and however I don't want add user-define class textbox by using removeobject to remove existing text1 in columns 3 and then addobject with another customised class object
having keypress procedure defined inside class as well.

This code is under my main.PRG :

procedure _screen.activeform.activecontrol.columns(3).text1.keypress
LPARAMETERS nKeyCode, nShiftAltCtrl

if nKeyCode = 13

Wait windows "You have press Enter Button" Nowaits --->How to make it work if place grid's text1 control's procedure at inside .PRG.

endif

Endpro

Appreciate Thankfuls to anyone could help.

Do you also have 'KeyPreview' set to .T. in your form?

Yes it does - provided the grid actually contains data (that is, the RecordSource is present).

Although the grid has a keypress, the column doesn't.

If you are not seeing the grid's keypress firing, there must be something else wrong somewhere.

It's the keypress of the control in the column that fires, not the grid's keypress, I believe.

What you want to do, program the keypress in a prg and let it be triggered by the grid, would need BINDEVENTS. In VFP6 you have to do a textbox with keypress and replace it in the grid.

Even a FLL craig boyd once did before BINDEVENTS was available depends on VFP7, I think. Besides, his site sweetpotatosoftware.com is taken down.

My understanding is that, if the grid is read-only, the grid's keypress will fire. If the grid is editable, it is the control's keypress that fires.

That would seem logical to me.
