RE: Auto Enter on an input field

["Mark A. Manske" <mmanske@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

A word of caution/advice on this feature -
I do a similar thing here; however;
what can happen is someone moves the cursor off of
the first position (I have eliminated most by reconfiguring
the emulation keys) and viola, your are scanning in partial
barcodes.  The other solution is to configure the scanning
device to do an auto enter after each successful scan too,
therefore only allowing one 'funny' scan through to your program.

Yes, under Keying Options for the field, set Auto Record Advance = 'Y'.
You'll need to make sure the barcode data fills the whole field.

I have a field that is receiving input from a barcode. Is there a way I can
make the field automatically enter once the barcode has been scanned? Is
there a display attribute, or any other DDS keyword that will handle that?
