O7 -> O$ prompted find
Hi Paul,
Which events are triggering the validation code?
We try to stay away from adding validation code behind fields so that
users don’t get stuck while entering data. Instead we have a
$checkInsertEdit() method that is called when the user saves the data.
That said, an instance var to determine what type of input you expect is
not a bad idea. We defined a short integer in our super window:
1=insert, 2=edit, 3=find.
Best regards,
Nick Renders
