GOTO AREA ({*; }object)

ParameterTypeDescription
**If specified = object is an object name (string)
If omitted = object is a field or a variable
objectField | VariableObject name (if * specified) or
Field or Variable (if * omitted) to go to

Description

The GOTO AREA command is used to select the data entry object object as the active area of the form. It is equivalent to the user's clicking on or tabbing into the field or variable.

If you specify the optional * parameter, you indicate an object name (a string) in object. If you omit the optional * parameter, you indicate a field or a variable in object. In this case, specify a field or variable reference (field or variable objects only) instead of a string. For more information about object names, see the section Object Properties.

Note: This command only functions in input forms. It has no effect on data entry areas located in subform List forms.

Examples

1. The GOTO AREA command can be used in both ways:

   GOTO AREA ([People]Name)   ` Field Reference
   GOTO AREA (*;"AgeArea")   ` Object Name

2. See the example for the command REJECT.
