ADT: Data Outline Control Events Not Triggered
ID: Q122714
|
The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft Access Developer's Toolkit, versions 2.0, 7.0
SYMPTOMS
Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.
Code assigned to a Data Outline control's event (such as the DoRowClick,
DoRowDblClick, or DoKeyPress event) does not run when the event occurs.
CAUSE
The Data Outline control's SendMouseEvents and SendKeyboardEvents
properties are not set to True. The default for both properties is False.
RESOLUTION
Set the Data Outline control's SendMouseEvents and SendKeyboardEvents
properties to True to enable the triggering of mouse and keyboard events by
the Data Outline control. To set the SendMouseEvents and SendKeyboardEvents
properties to True, follow these steps:
- Open the form containing the Data Outline control in Design view.
- Using the right mouse button, click the Data Outline control.
- On the shortcut menu, point to Data Outline Control Object, and then
click Properties.
- Click to select the SendMouseEvents and SendKeyboardEvents check boxes, and then click OK.
Note that you need only select the appropriate property for the type of
events you want the Data Outline control to process. For example, if you
want the Data Outline control to process only mouse events, click to select
only the SendMouseEvents check box.
