Lost effect of default Pushbutton

Since changing my program to run with Firebird it has lost the ability of 
pushbuttons to react to the default = true setting.  For instance, when a 
dialog window that has an OK button with default = true, normally pressing 
<enter> would have the same effect as clicking the OK button.  Now it 
doesn't have any effect and the mouse has to be used.  Has anyone else seen 
this?

I agree with Andrew, others are using Firebird and have never complained of 
such a thing.
See below help for the CuaTab Setting.  This will cause the OK default 
button to be ignored.

CuaTab
Determines cursor behavior when you press Tab while a control has focus.

Property of

Browse, Editor, Grid

Description

When cuaTab is true, pressing Tab moves to the next control in the form's 
tab order. When cuaTab is false, pressing Tab moves to the next field in a 
Grid or Browse object or moves the cursor to the next tab stop in an Editor 
object.

The same applies to pressing Shift+Tab, except that the movement is in 
reverse.

I really doubt that this can have anything to do with the database you

Yes, Geoff is correct, my quick check in the online help revealed CuaTab.

Dain,

This is from the on-line help:

The default property will only work when SET CUAENTER is set to ON. When 
CUAENTER is OFF, the Enter key emulates the Tab key and merely shifts 
focus to the next control.

Do you have any SET CUAENTERs in your code and is yourProg.INI setup 
correctly in this regard?
