SUMMARY
This article explains how, when using a check box in a column on a grid, you can move to the next column immediately on clicking the check box. The default behavior is to remain in the current column.



MORE INFORMATION
By placing code in the Valid event procedure of the check box object, you can programmatically determine the current column and then move to the next column using the SetFocus method. The following code illustrates one way to do this. FOR myctlcntr=1 TO this.parent.parent.columncount && cycle through columns IF THIS.PARENT.PARENT.COLUMNS(myctlcntr).CONTROLS(2).NAME = THIS.NAME

* In the next line columns(myctlcntr+1) comes beforem controls(2) * because the column header is the first control and data is the * second control.

THIS.PARENT.PARENT.COLUMNS(myctlcntr+1).CONTROLS(2).SETFOCUS EXIT

ENDIF ENDFOR
