> PS. I once had a big argument with a client about this issue. In my
opinion,
it is not a good idea for an application to change standard Windows UI
behavior.
I guess us pre-mouse old timers like that traditional enter, exit thing. The
RETURN key is easy to reach and a great way to form exit. I think that's an
old IBM standard. I agree with you about messing with defaults these days.
It does take a part of a second longer to grab the mouse and click it, so I
guess it would have to be a really data entry intensive application to want
to mess with it.
Could someone let me know if falls within the list guidlines to ask another
type question like how on a web form to get an initially displayed web page
field to have focus. You always have to click in the field the first time. I
see this type of question has a good chance of not being responed to. With
people not wanting to post their email addresses I guess it's hard to take
these questions off the list.
Thanks for the reply!
Have a great weekend!
