On Click on Page

[MFS 43]

I have a form with tab controls and each tab marks a page.

However, if I try to use the "OnClick" event for that page, it only works in
few spots on the page. The rest of the page (where it does not work) is the
"Detail" section.

Why are some sections of the "page" the real thing i.e. page and the adjacent
segment is the detail section?

How can I get the "OnClick" event to work for the whole page.

Thank you for the help in advance.

The "OnClick" for a page works only on areas which aren't part of any other
unit.
One work-around, admittedly a bit cumbersome, would go like this:
Create a separate function to do whatever you want to have happen if the
mouse is clicked.
Call this function in the OnClick of the page, the Detail section, and
each control.
Although it's not especially recommended, a quick way to implement
this is to select everything you want to include in the Click, then write
the name of the function in the OnClick line of the property box.
