DOCUMENT:Q166941 11-DEC-1999 [foxpro] TITLE :PRB: DblClick Event Fires After Keystroke Followed by Space PRODUCT :Microsoft FoxPro PROD/VER:WINDOWS:3.0,3.0b,5.0,5.0a,6.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbprogramming kbtool kbvfp kbvfp300 kbvfp500 kbvfp600 ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, versions 3.0, 3.0b, 5.0, 5.0a, 6.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== In Visual FoxPro 3.0x, 5.0x, and 6.0, the DBLCLICK event of a LISTBOX triggers after any keystroke followed by space. This can cause a problem when performing an incremental search on a search string that has spaces in between. STATUS ====== This behavior is by design. MORE INFORMATION ================ The DBLCLICK event should only trigger if a double mouse click is performed. Steps to Reproduce Behavior --------------------------- 1. Create a new form. 2. Add a list box to the form. Set the RowSourceType property to 1 (Values), and RowSource to "AB, A B". 3. Put the following code in the list box DBLCLICK event: WAIT WINDOW "DblClick" 4. Save and run the form. Try to find line "A B" using incremental search, for example, type "A" (without the quotation marks), then . The Wait window appears at the upper-right corner. NOTE: Even if you do not have code for DBLCLICK event, there is no way to search for strings with spaces inside.
