How to Move to the Next Column in a Grid When Using Check Box

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
