Ins with tab on xbrowse
Posted: Tue Oct 29, 2024 12:41 PM
I have this xbrowse




I need to insert numbers using the tab key, but I saw that it doesn't work and I have to change cells with the mouse spending a lot of time

How can I use the tab key for quick data entry?
Since from 1991/1992 ( fw for clipper Rel. 14.4 - Momos)

I use : FiveWin for Harbour March-April 2024 - Harbour 3.2.0dev (harbour_bcc770_32_20240309) - Bcc7.70 - xMate ver. 1.15.3 - PellesC - mail: silvio[dot]falconi[at]gmail[dot]com

insert numbers using the tab key,
TAB key is never used to insert (write) data.
If you mean navigating cells....
Arrow keys move the cursor to right or left.
If you want to use TAB key to move to next right cell for editing, the same way as in Excel, then use
Code (fw): Select all Collapse
oBrw:lTabLikeExcel := .t.
If you set this flag, pressing TAB key makes xbrowse behave exactly like Excel, moving the cell cursor to right.
