How do I read the Spinner Value ??

[TerryUrb]

I need to read the true value residing in the Spinner. The number in the Spinner is correct, however there is some conflict of selected values when reading UpClick, DownClick and KeyPress. For eg. If the UpClick is selected to a value, say 5, and then the DownClick is selected to 4, and then if the entry of 6 is input on the keyboard, 6 is in the Spinner, but values 4 is in UpClick, 5 is in DownClick and 5 is also in KeyPress, not 6. If I hit 6 a second time, 6 will be in KeyPress.
Any Ideas on how to resolve this? Thanks

I think I have answered this myself playing around with the proceedures. If I selected "InteractiveChange", the value obtained from this proceedure was the same value that was showing up visually on the Spinner.

If I selected "InteractiveChange"

That's the usual technique. If you intercept the mouse clicks then you're reading values before Fox has finished deciding what you want to to do with the control.

MouseDown will be particularly weird on a Spinner because it has a delayed action - it alters the value, waits a little while and then spins the value continually.
