>Is it possible to have an editbox, on a Modal form, to have the ability to do a Find via the Ctrl-F keypress?
The standard menu item is basically for a BROWSE window only. I don't think you can use it in an EditBox, or even in a Grid.
Of course, you can program some action for Ctrl-F. For instance, you can call up a standard form, ask for a value. Save it to a variable (I will assume tcSearchValue) and then do a search similar to:
LOCATE [REST] FOR UPPER(tcSearchValue) $ EVAL(trans(UPPER(This.ControlSource)))
The trans() should make it work even for dates and numbers.
All this would have to be programmed in your base classes, especially your version of the TextBox.
