TEdit enter

[captian jaster]

How do I set a Tedit so that when ENTER is pressed something is done..

[typo]

On the OnKeyPress event of the TEdit:

Code: [Select]

if Key = #13 then Do;

Even easier:

Code: [Select]

Edit1.Default := True;

Even easier:

Code: [Select]

Edit1.Default := True;


this is one I've not seen before and I get "no member" error when I try.  can you elaborate?

Same here...
I also have another question...
I have a TMemo box and a TEdit in my Form..
How can I make so that when the form loads the cursor automatically loads into the TEdit and not the TMemo

[typo]

Code: [Select]

Form.ActiveControl := Edit;

Or set it on the Object Inspector.

Ok, damn. "Default" property belongs to TButton, not TEdit. Sorry. Must have been a short-circuit in my head. Not the first time.
For TEdit you must use OnKeyPress indeed.

"Default" property works well for TButton though. You hit Enter and the button's action is fired.

Form.ActiveControl := Edit;

Or set it on the Object Inspector.

You can also do in that way:

Code: [Select]

edit1.setfocus;
You can replace 'edit1' with combobox, labelededit and so on...
