Hi Gaylen ---

Nice to see another TFUG member here :-)

Anyway, you have to rout ON KEY LABELS to procedure code and do what you want there. For example, I usually have a procedure file called "hooks" where I store code to run. You want to turn the OKL on and off in the focus events of a control to make sure that it works as expected in a modeless environment. What does this all mean? Welll....here's the breakdown:

*** Form.TextBox.GotFocus
ON KEY LABEL F5 DO recalc IN hooks 

*** hooks.prg
PROCEDURE recalc
   _SCREEN.ActiveForm.cmdRecalc.Click()
ENDPROC

*** Form.TextBox.LostFocus
ON KEY LABEL F5

Got it? 

>I need to read the F10 keypress in a text box.  I put code in the keypress method  and it will read all the key pressed except the F10 key .  Any thoughts on how to read the keypress.  Client wants to use F10 for consistency sake so I can't substitute another key.
