Hello Foxperts,

I'm trying to capture the F8 keystroke and use it to replace the contents of a character field with another string that was saved in a memvar. Here's the code I've placed in the KeyPress event-method of the textbox:

LPARAMETERS nKeyCode, nShiftAltCtrl
	WAIT "You Pressed "+TRANSFORM(nKeyCode) WINDOW NOWAIT   && for debug only
IF nKeyCode=-7
	NODEFAULT
	oRec_mem.bwk_PlaceName=m.PlaceName
	This.Refresh()
ELSE
	DODEFAULT(nKeyCode)
ENDIF

The WAIT ... WINDOW line shows me the nKeyCode for F7 and F9, but F8 returns nothing.

UPDATE: F8 appeared to return nothing because an old ON KEY LABEL F8 DO ... was lurking in the dBASE/DOS program I've been trying to replicate in VFP. Thanks........ posting the problem solved it again!
