Why does this code on a command button ..

var vNav as Int

           
            vNav = @SelectTreeItem("Search Update Menu!Navigation!Advance Record (F10)")


Behave differently then following the same steps on the menu tree or pressing the F10 key?

If I use the menu or the F10 function key  it commits the record and tries to advance to the next record and I believe is caught by my on form entry logic of:

If @Update and ord_ponum = ""  // If @Update and @Isblank(ord_ponum)

Then

     {
     @Msg("Returning you to previous record.")
     ResultSetCurrentPosition(@ResultSetCurrentPosition() - 1)
     }

With the command button logic shown in original post above it creates a new Record.

1. If you want to prevent an advance to the next record, use NotifyForm instead.

2. You are likely seeing this behavior because you are advancing from inside SBasic code. This can affect when the next chunk of code encountered is able to run and can cause changes in behavior. We'd have to see the entire environment to point at exactly what is happening in your case.

Regardless, use NotifyForm instead to prevent Extend Mode and the point should be moot.

Thanks for the Info. As always you guys and gals are the best.  Smiley

I was not having a problem achieving my objective (Sbasic offers me so many tools that I did it another way) I was just confused why it behaved differently. For some reason I thought the Sbasic command @SelectTreeItem() was just the same as if I used the mouse to press the same key sequence. (I guess the magic behind the curtain still eludes me!)

Thanks again for the help.
