Disable Using ESC Key to Close Dialogs
Question:
I was wondering if anybody might be able to help me resolve this question.I have noticed that when I write a script using a dialog I can sometimes use the Escape Key to close the dialog and the program exits.
Most of my dialogs have simple data entry fields, an ADD button (default button) and a CANCEL button. The users fill in the fields and hit Enter. The dialog is then ready for more input until they hit CANCEL, or the Escape Key at which point it finishes the program.
The problem is that this Escape Key facility is available 'sometimes' and I would like to know how to turn this facility on.
I am using the current version of the compiler, I do not do any special coding to cater for the Escape Key, and I do not use User defined Dialog procedures in these simple scripts. Sometimes it's available, sometimes it's not and I don't know what switches it on.
Any hints or idea's on how to control it would be greatly appreciated.
Answer:
The important thing here is the value in the field after the "Cancel" title, the title is not important. If the value is zero then pressing the Escape key or clicking it causes the dialog to exit to a :CANCEL label in the calling script.If there is no Cancel label the script just terminates.
