Hey,
Is there a way to click into a numeric field in a form and have it highlight the whole field on the single click (highlighted as if the field is being tabbed into)?
I ask this because if you click into a numeric field with a format mask you can start typing from where you click into. Not very user friendly.
Any help would be great.

Hi,
pls use select_all;
eg, if there are 2 text boxes,T1 and T2,in key- next-item of T1 write the below:
enter;
if form_success then
go_item('T2');
select_all;
end if;
I dont think you can use select_all in when-validate-item trigger.
Hope your question is answered.
Pls write back.
All the best.
Ani

Thanks for the reply Ani.
I couldn't seem to get it to do what I wanted though. The oracle documentation on the select_all function does exactly what I want! But doesn't seem to do anything on when-mouse-click triggers ... This is when it has to function... so i can select the whole field just by clicking once into it.
Cheers.
Dan.
