I have a form which I want users to "view only" certain fields. I don't
want a tab stop on those fields, I don't want focus on those fields;
nothing, just view only. When scrolling through the records of the form,
these fields have focus. How can I get those fields to be view only and no
tab stops. The field's tab properties are Auto Tab=No, Tab Stop=No, Tab
Indes=No. What am I missing here?
Thanks in advance,
Jeff 3 8597

You can set Enabled to False. Good user interface design: change the
layout of the control so that it doesn't look as if it can be enabled
some way (not sunken/raised, probably transparent background)

If you need the control data to be nice and readable, then setting Locked
to true and playing with the control/font colours and styles sometimes look
better than the greyed out Disabled look.

Oh yes indeed, disabled also grayes. Greyes. Whatever.
Sometimes I put this in the Enter event:
screen.previous control.setfocu s
That way you can never enter the field.

Hi I need some help if anyone can understand my crap javascript. The problem

I wrote a slideshow script. When you click a hypertext link it calls the
function speed() and passes the variable 5000:

Hi,
I am writing a service which takes a long time to stop after the OnStop
call is given by the Services Snap-in. The problem is I cannot cut down on
the time that it takes to Stop. The Service snap-in gives me the error
saying that the service did not respond to the Stop call in a timely
fashion. So is there any method by which I can get around this problem.
Thanks

Hi,
I have two windows services running together. One is the main

service starts and stops the main one (as in you should never start or

On most computers it works great, the updater's onStop() can start and
stop the main service perfectly. On some computers, though, the
updater hangs when it tries to stop the main service. It...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
