WTEApplication.InitialAutoNumber Property

The InitialAutoNumber property sets or retrieves the value that WTE starts with when automatically assigning access-key values to items in a menu.

Syntax

WTEApplication.InitialAutoNumber [ = sValue ]

Possible Values

sValue

String specifying the initial access-key value. By default, this property contains an empty string.

This property is read-write.

Remarks

WTE assigns access-key values using the minimum number of digits possible, depending on the number of items in the menu. For example, if the menu has up to nine items, WTE assigns single-digit access-key values. If the menu has up 99 items, it assigns two-digit values, and so on.

If the InitialAutoNumber property is an empty string, WTE assigns access-key values beginning with the number 1, 10, 100, or 1000, depending on the number of items in the menu.

The number of items to which WTE assigns single-digit access-key values depends on the values already assigned to other keys. For example, if the home key is 1, the back key is 2, and the operator key is 3, WTE assigns only the digits 4 through 9 to items in a menu that has fewer than 10 items.
