Re: Can we use the Delete key in a display file? -- RPG400-L

Booth,

IMHO...even if you could do this...it'd be a bad idea; as the behavior
would be very unexpected.

If you want to get fancy with your deletes, how about a mouse button
right-click that brings up a pop-up window with delete as an option?
(Seems like it should be do-able off the top of my head)

Again, the simplest question baffles me. I would like to use the
keyboard's Delete key to signal that a record is to be deleted.

How does one do that?
