Set Focus on Field in Datawindow

[pss...@gmail.com]

Hi All,

I have a 2 data windows, 1 which is a grid and holds all the records
and the second drives off the grid to displays the details of the
selected record. The user has an option to add a new record by
pressing a "Add" button which creates a new record in both data
windows.

The problem I am having is that when a new record is created, I can't
focus to a particular field on the details datawindow. I have read
other articles and tried the following:

dw_Name.SetColumn("first_name")

But it does not focus on the field. I have checked the tab order on
all the fields and they are ok.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks.

Hello it should be like this :

int li_rowcount, li_newrow

li_rowcount = dw_1.rowcount()
li_newrow = li_rowcount + 1
dw_1.insertrow(li_newrow)
dw_1.scrolltorow(li_newrow)
dw_1.setfocus()

Bye :-) Happy powerbuildering :-)
