Re: Editing datagrid cells

Hi Pete, Unfortunately I don’t have any answers but I have a similar problem. I am trying to detect a return in a specific field on a datagrid form and so far I can either detect the return but not the name of the field (I just get the name of the field editor) or I can get the name of the fi

I may have to go that route since I just can't get replaceText to work. I didn't know breakpoint was always on a line by itself - so you can't have another command on the same line separated by a comma? Kinda moot anyway since I'd never do that and this will only ever be working on my scripts. S
