1.5 and 1.6

Section titled “1.5 and 1.6”
  • 1.5: gives the keyboard focus to an edit field, memo, button, combo box, list or check box in the menu window. Other controls are ignored.
  • 1.6: works on any control, in any window: it brings the control’s window to the front and gives the control the focus if it can take it. Naming a window (menu Form, or form0) brings that window to the front.
