Not exactly. If you don't want the browse fields to EVER be enterable,
press the Configure Edit in place | Column Specific buttons, then
select which column field you DON'T want to EIP, press Properties
button, and then uncheck the Allow Edit-in-place checkbox and press OK.
If you need to do this programmatically, because of a condition such as
"allow entry on Insert but not on Change" for instance, you'll have to
create a BYTE variable in your local Data area, and set
it in the control events before generated code for each of your
Insert/Change/Delete buttons. Set it to InsertRecord, ChangeRecord or
DeleteRecord, depending. Call it SaveRequest.
In Local Objects, EIP control, Init method, after the Parent Call:
IF SaveRequest = ChangeRecord
SELF.SetReadOnly(True)
END
This prevents the user from changing the column, but they can still
select it. To cause the selected column to automatically shift to the
right:
In Local Objects, EIP control, TakeEvent method, BEFORE the Parent
call:
IF SaveRequest = ChangeRecord
RETURN EditAction::Forward
END
(Note the double colon. This is correct.)
This causes the field to automatically shift to the next field.
