Navigating in dialog boxes and windows
Many options you choose in the OpenEdge tools display dialog boxes and windows where you have to enter information, toggle on boxes, or choose buttons. Use the following information as a guide to choosing options and entering information into dialog boxes and windows when using OpenEdge tools:
*Move the highlight bar through the dialog box or window by pressing the right arrow or TAB key. For example, press TAB to skip a fill‑in area, toggle box, or button.
*Reverse direction and move backward by pressing BACKTAB.
*Scroll up and down lists using the arrow keys.
*Choose a highlighted button or a toggle box by pressing RETURN.
