SHIFT/F2 MEMO FIELD - Overide Mode --------HELP

[lalexander]

I have a Memo field in a form that goes into overide mode when focus is
given.
I have corrected this with the Event - On Enter = NOTES.SelStart = 0
this puts the memo field in a Insert mode - which is what I want.

Sometimes the user triggers the SHIFT/F2 Function to expand the memo field ,
which resets the memo into the overide mode again.

Could someone help me with the code for the Shift/f2 to set the memo back to
insert mode?

Thanks.

the F2 function key toggles the user between the insertion
point and selecting the whole field. You should teach this
to your users. This is the only "solution" that I have found.

there is no easy way to trap the event of the user pressing
SHIFT-F2 - if you use KeyDown, you will have to test fot
SHIFT and F2 in a row...

even if you issue the Zoombox on a double-click event, you
cannot even use SendKeys to send the F2 and End...

.... at least not that I have found...

Have an awesome day

Warm Regards,
