dynamic data

[Nghtcrwlr]

Is it possible to check a numeric control while typing... i mean dynamic checking. I have a table and I want to check whether the (1,1) element is greater than 10 while i type. Now at the moment it is possible only after you enter a a value and click in another cell.

thanks

Hi Nghtcrwlr,

   String control has the 'update while typing' option.I don't think its readily available for Table control

Hi Nightcrwlr,

you could start with an event structure to check "key press" events for your table...

Hi Nightcrwlr,

  I have made something in the line with Gerdw's suggessiton.

The values from table gets updated only when there is change in Keyfocus. I have used a dummy control to shift focus after every key press.

You can make changes  as per your requirement.

Thanks Frabto...Your draft version is a good example.. The only problem is that you cant type a 2 or 3 digit number. It always blinks in the 1 digit.

I came across this post while looking for something similar to the "update value while typing" that strings possess, but for numerics. This helped me solve the issue, with some modifications that might be useful to others. Here's my solution which could help fix the issues others are seeing.
