Something really common I'm sure and I'm surprised it's not just a field
property option.
The previous record's field value can be retrieved and copied into the
current corresponding field by the operator hitting CTRL+APOSTROPHE on the
new field but I would like this to occur with the user having to strike any
keys.
Suggestions?
Thanks,
Loren

It *is* a field property.
In the AfterUpdate event of the control (let's say it is called
theValue), put
theValue.defaul tvalue = theValue.value
If theValue is text, do this:
theValue.defaul tvalue = "'" & theValue.value & "'"

Ah yes, that did it!

The above event/code worked fine for a text type control but not for a date
type. Can someone please tell me what to use to propagate a date field?
Thanks.
same concept, except with # signs
theValue.defaul tvalue = "#" & theValue.value & "#"

I have a small table that need to keep a balance of work outstanding. The
fields are as follows
REC_COUNT (auto-index created record counter)
DATE (work date)
QTY_REQD (work added on that date)
BAL (balance of work outstanding at the end of that date)
The field REC_COUNT is used as a sort order field so that there is no
confusion about which record is next.

A client wants a press of the Enter key in a field on a continuous form to
grab the value of that field from the previous record.
But if they have typed a value and then hit Enter it shouldn't.
I have tried a few ways but the main problem is that after typing a value
and hitting Enter it still grabs the value from the previous record,
trashing the value they just typed.
Any ideas from you lateral thinkers.

Hi
I've been using the 2 year old link below to repeat values from previous record field into current corresponding field. It's worked fine for text but the last piece of advice was to use the same logic for a date field. i.e.
theValue.defaultvalue = "#" & theValue.value & "#"
I can't get this to work for some reason and I can't figure out why. Can anyone out there help?
Thanks

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.
Here is my compilation command:
