Thanks for the prompt Mike.

Short answer - don't know yet, though I suspect I'm going to have to find out.

I do not currently have "mobile text field objects" - all I have are just standard LC fields, so returninfield is all I need for the 'return' part of the problem - no need for 'inputReturnKey'.

However, I also want to trap any attempt to paste in text containing CRs; I can do that for traditional platforms with a 'pasteKey' handler - but that doesn't seem to apply to LC fields on mobile, and also there doesn't appear to be any direct equivalent for mobile text fields (though there may be other ways to achieve the same result on mobile text fields - I really haven't looked at them yet).

In fact, maybe that's the question I *should* ask.
    "Should i be  (can I reasonably get away with) using LC fields in an app targeted for mobiles, or do I really need to use mobile text fields ?

Thanks
Alex.

I'm sure there must be an easy way I'm missing ..... he said in hope :-)

I want a field to contain a single line of data - i.. no CRs.

I've done the easy bit (a handler for returninfield).

I can even do the moderate bit -  a 'pastekey' handler, and check for CRs
in the clipboard - but that doesn't apply to mobile (or at least, the dict
says it doesn't).

Is there any way to handle it on mobile ?

Thanks
Alex.
