I have a matrix in the screen. when i tab out the first column of matrix , a Look-up (formatted search screen)has to be displayed.The value i select in the from the Look- up has to be put in first column of the matrix.
on TAB out of the first column i display the Look-up. Once i TAB out, the focus goes to the Next column . So the value from the Look-up gets displayed in the second column of the matrix instead of the first one.
But in many of the standard screens i see that the focus remains on the Same control when a Look-up pops up.
I tried VALIDATE,LOSTFOCUS events also.
Can anyone help?
You could try the following:-
Intercept the TAB key press using KEY_DOWN, make sure Before_Action = True.
Call the formatted search using ActivateMenuItem, then set BubbleEvent to false to prevent the TAB key being processed.

John.
