Form Function Options?

[TonySC]

When you are in General Tab of Combobox Edit mode there is a selection named "Tab" what is this for and how can it be used? There is a Tab named "Events", what is this for and how is it used? There is a Tab named "Validate"
I understand "selection required" but what is the purpose of "display name", "custom error message" and "disallow first choice".
Thanks,
TonySC

events - used to insert a script or action on a mouse event-(mouseover, on click etc)

validate - used to ensure that data has been entered

display name - the text that appears at the side of the box

disallow first choice - If the first field is a descriptive one it should not be used i.e. "select one of the following options"

David,
What is the "Tab Index" box for? Can I use the Events features to go to another selection box in my form? By the way thanks for your info. What are you doing up this late at night for you?

This is not late, its only 23:45.............besides I am busy with this place as well..........lol

I believe that the tab index allows you to step through th box options by using the tab key on your computer.

Look up the posts by naveldesign as I believe that he has posted several times on the subject of selecting another box within a box.
