Handle Attributes and Methods Reference : HonorProKeys property
 

HonorProKeys property

(Windows only; Graphical interfaces only)
Determines who processes the GO, ENDKEY, HELP, and TAB keys: the AVM, or the ActiveX control to which the property applies.
Data type: LOGICAL
Access: Readable/Writeable
Applies to: Any ActiveX control
If the property is TRUE, which is the default, the AVM intercepts these keys and processes them as normal ABL key events. If the property is FALSE, the keystrokes are sent to the ActiveX control for processing.
Note: This property resembles the HonorReturnKey property, which governs processing of the RETURN key, but whereas the default setting for HonorProKeys is TRUE (the AVM gets the event), the default setting for HonorReturnKey is FALSE (the ActiveX control gets the event).
