Question Closing forms from keyboard keys

[josephbupe]

Hi xpts,

Before I had all my forms set to Modal=No, Pop-Up=No. This way I was able to close any form with a Ctrl + F4 keys on the key board. Just wondering if there is a similar combination to close forms when they have both of the above properties set to YES.

Thanks always.

Create an Autokeys Macro and add your shortcut key commands in it and use.

Example:

1. Open a new Macro and display the Macro Name column if it is not visible.
2. Write ^F in the Macro name column.
3. Select Close in the Action Column.
4. Save the Macro with the name AutoKeys.
5. Open a Form or Report in normal View.
6. Now, press and hold Ctrl Key and press F Key.

The Active Object will be closed. In this way you can add many custom Keyboard Shortcuts in the AutoKeys macro and use them.

Tip: You can use + key to use Shift Key with other Keys.
