IS there a way to cause any control that gets focus to run the @window's OMNIEVENT?
Or some other way to cause a routine to run when any control gets focus besides 'hanging' something on each control's gotfocus event.
Thanks, arcs@arcscustomsoftware.com

Paxton,
Absolutely. My suggestion, however, is to read the best primer on Promoted Events which is found in a SENL issue a couple years ago. I'm sure if you do a website search for Promoted Events you will find a link to the specific issue. I don't have the issue handy at the moment otherwise I would tell you myself.

Thanks, Don, I tried that first, but my search was unsuccessful, thus the post. If someone knows the link, I'd appreciate it. I know it was explained at REV U, but I don't remember it.

Paxton,
Here's an indirect link to the SENL article: . You may also want to read the rest of that posting's thread, at least those postings where the subject mentions promoted events.

I have it working now, I appreciate the help. I did find the SELN article and it was a big help. I have my test working great on a single window. Now, I'm working on figuring out the correct naming convention for my GOTFOCUS event so it can be promoted to all EDITLINEs in my app. I must not understand the syntax. I tried
"MYAPP*GOTFOCUS.EDITLINE.OIWIN*". Maybe the problem is that training *. I'll try some more, but if anyone can give me the proper syntax, I'd appreciate it. Thanks as always. arcs@arcscustomsoftware.com
