I have a box that is the default area code and then a box that takes either a 7 digit number or a 10 digit number. Even with your solution i would need to know how to move the cursor to the end of the edit box because if the backspace key was hitat the begining of the second box, the cursor should move to the end of the first box. --jon snyder

Dan, Thanks. That's a good idea, but I think that there has to be a better way. The main reason that i didn't want to have different text boxes was to allow the flexibility of using a default area code or just entering 10 digits into the edit box. If you noticed my "addDashes()" routine formated a 7 digit number like this, 123-4567, and a 10 digit number like this, 123-456-7890. If just 7 digits were entered it would use the default area code as the area code. I realize you could do this with multiple edit boxes, but i think that would be more mess than its worth. There had to be some c routine that would be able to move the cursor to the end of an edit box. Would it be that hard just to link to some c routine that would do this? I also thought of the possiblity of just fooling the key handler into thinking that the "End" button was pressed. I don't know how to even start doing something like that. --Jon Snyder Dan Moyer wrote: > Jon, > > Here's an attempt to be helpful; it does *some* of what you want, but > not > exactly always, maybe it could be fixed up, or at least prompt a better > attempt? > > It uses the "3" edit boxes you *didn't* like, backspaces correctly > *some* of > the time to the *end* of the previous number field (& *doesn't* other > times, > moves to *beginning* of previous instead), & moves from the prefix to > the > last part of the number on filling in 3 digits.

Yo Yo Yo, Hey to all the people on here that know me. Looks like I finally joined the List. :P To thoes of ya who don't know me, You'll soon get to know me. Anyways, Regarding the Moving the Cursor Problem. I have a easy solution to that. Intercept Key Strokes, and look for the Tab Button to be pushed, or the Enter button to be pushed. Use MoveZOrder to move to the next Control if the Input Key Stroke is VK_RETURN, then use getText(), and setText() to get and format the Phone Number. Easily Done: procedure onKeyDown_PhoneInput(integer id, integer event, sequence param) sequence phone_num if param[1] = VK_TAB or param[1] = VK_RETURN then phone_num = getText(PhoneInput) phone_num = "(" & phone_num[1..3] & ") " & phone_num[4..6] & "-" & phone_num[7..length(phone_num)] if param[1] = VK_RETURN then moveZOrder(nextControl) returnValue(-1) end if end if end procedure setHandler(PhoneInput,w32HKeyDown,routine_id("onKeyDown_PhoneInput")) That's all there is to it. TTFN, (Ta-Ta For Now)

Hi Don, Your method seems to work fine as far as I can tell. I have amended my earlier post to use the same add/removeDashes functions for comparison. Seems to be equivalent, just a couple of lines shorter ;) Regards, Phil -- Set caret position whilst editing -- Phil Russell August 2002 include win32lib.ew without warning with trace constant Win = create( Window, "Caret Position", 0, Default, Default, 200, 100, 0 ), Sle = create( EditText, "", Win, 10, 20, 120, 20, 0 ) function removeDashes( sequence line) sequence new_line new_line = {} for i = 1 to length( line) do if line[i] != '-' then new_line &= line[i] end if end for return new_line end function function addDashes( sequence text) integer length_text length_text = length( text) if length_text > 3 then text = text[1..3] & '-' & text[4..length_text] end if if length_text > 8 then text = text[1..7] & '-' & text[8..length_text+1] end if return text end function -- Process events after windows handling is completed procedure after_event (integer self, integer event, sequence parms) atom key, junk, msg msg = parms[1] key = parms[2] -- Amend text after wm_char has been processed if msg=WM_CHAR and key != VK_BACK then setText(self, addDashes(removeDashes(getText(self)))) -- This sets the caret to the end of the text junk = sendMessage(self, EM_SETSEL, 0, -1 ) junk = sendMessage(self, EM_SETSEL, -1, -1 ) end if end procedure setHandler(Sle, w32HAfterEvent, routine_id("after_event")) WinMain( Win, Normal )

Thanks Phil and Don. I'm begining to think that Derek Parnell was right and that it's more trouble than its worth to try and put dashes in the edit box. I came across an error with either of your solutions. If you try to edit the number from the middle then the caret gets put at the end and not after the number just entered. To fix this, one would have to find where the caret is and then put the caret back in the next place. As a side note, Could someone explain these lines of code. I think that they do the same thing.

Okie, after poking around with it I came up with this. It has the interesting side effect of not allowing the removal of the dashes directly which I think is cool. I also modified the style of the edit box to restrict the input to numbers only. ========== include Win32Lib.ew constant MainWin = create( Window, "", NULL, 0.25, 0.25, 0.5, 0.5, 0 ), NUMBER_EDIT = create( EditText, "", MainWin, 10, 10, 150, 25, ES_NUMBER ) atom Pos function removeDashes( sequence line) sequence new_line new_line = {} for i = 1 to length( line) do if line[i] != '-' then new_line &= line[i] end if end for return new_line end function function addDashes( sequence text) integer length_text length_text = length( text) if length_text > 2 then text = text[1..3] & '-' & text[4..length_text] Pos += 1 end if if length_text > 5 then text = text[1..7] & '-' & text[8..length_text+1] Pos += 1 end if return text end function procedure change_edit() Pos = w32Func( xSendMessage, {getHandle(NUMBER_EDIT),EM_GETSEL,0,0} ) onChange[ NUMBER_EDIT] = -1 setText( NUMBER_EDIT, addDashes( removeDashes( getText( NUMBER_EDIT) ) )) onChange[ NUMBER_EDIT] = routine_id( "change_edit") Pos = w32Func( xSendMessage, {getHandle(NUMBER_EDIT),EM_SETSEL,lo_word(Pos),lo_word(Pos)} ) end procedure onChange[ NUMBER_EDIT] = routine_id( "change_edit") WinMain( MainWin, Normal ) ==========

Don, That's great. This is exactly how i wanted it to work. I made a couple changes to the code. In the remove dashes routine it decrements Pos if there is a dash. Also the add dashes doesn't add the dash until later so it can read in a 10 or a 7 digit number. Where did you get the information to know how to do this? Is it in the Win32Lib docs? ================== include Win32Lib.ew constant MainWin = create( Window, "", NULL, 0.25, 0.25, 0.5, 0.5, 0 ), NUMBER_EDIT = create( EditText, "", MainWin, 10, 10, 150, 25, ES_NUMBER ), LABEL = create( LText, "", MainWin, 100, 100, 200, 24, 0) atom Pos function removeDashes( sequence line) sequence new_line new_line = {} for i = 1 to length( line) do if line[i] != '-' then new_line &= line[i] else Pos -= 1 end if end for return new_line end function function addDashes( sequence text) integer length_text length_text = length( text) if length_text > 3 then text = text[1..3] & '-' & text[4..length_text] Pos += 1 end if if length_text > 7 then text = text[1..7] & '-' & text[8..length_text+1] Pos += 1 end if return text end function procedure change_edit() Pos = lo_word( w32Func( xSendMessage, {getHandle(NUMBER_EDIT),EM_GETSEL,0,0} )) onChange[ NUMBER_EDIT] = -1 setText( NUMBER_EDIT, addDashes( removeDashes( getText( NUMBER_EDIT) ) )) onChange[ NUMBER_EDIT] = routine_id( "change_edit") setText( LABEL , sprintf( "%d", Pos )) Pos = w32Func( xSendMessage, {getHandle(NUMBER_EDIT),EM_SETSEL, Pos, Pos} ) end procedure onChange[ NUMBER_EDIT] = routine_id( "change_edit") WinMain( MainWin, Normal ) Don Phillips wrote: > Okie, after poking around with it I came up with this. > It has the interesting side effect of not allowing the > removal of the dashes directly which I think is cool. > > I also modified the style of the edit box to restrict > the input to numbers only. > > ========== > include Win32Lib.ew > > constant > MainWin = create( Window, "", NULL, 0.25, 0.25, 0.5, 0.5, 0 ), > NUMBER_EDIT = create( EditText, "", MainWin, 10, 10, 150, 25, ES_NUMBER > ) > > atom Pos > > function removeDashes( sequence line) > sequence new_line > new_line = {} > for i = 1 to length( line) do > if line[i] != '-' then > new_line &= line[i] > end if > end for > return new_line > end function > > function addDashes( sequence text) > integer length_text > length_text = length( text) > > if length_text > 2 then > text = text[1..3] & '-' & text[4..length_text] > Pos += 1 > end if > if length_text > 5 then > text = text[1..7] & '-' & text[8..length_text+1] > Pos += 1 > end if > > return text > end function > > procedure change_edit() > Pos = w32Func( xSendMessage, {getHandle(NUMBER_EDIT),EM_GETSEL,0,0} > ) > onChange[ NUMBER_EDIT] = -1 > setText( NUMBER_EDIT, addDashes( removeDashes( getText( NUMBER_EDIT) > ) )) > onChange[ NUMBER_EDIT] = routine_id( "change_edit") > Pos = w32Func( xSendMessage, > {getHandle(NUMBER_EDIT),EM_SETSEL,lo_word(Pos),lo_word(Pos)} ) > end procedure > onChange[ NUMBER_EDIT] = routine_id( "change_edit") > > WinMain( MainWin, Normal ) > ========== > >

Hi Jon, You should change "if length_text > 7 then" to "if length_text >= 7 then" to get a better result. Try deleting after the 8 number with your code and one with that change, and also in your code the - i added when the 8th number is added, it should be the 7th. Best Regards, Guillermo Bonvehi

Jon/Don, Congrats to Don for figuring out how to keep the caret position. Just to give you the choice I have amended my version to do the same thing. As an info source, I can recommend Charles Petzold's book on programming the windows API. Online, I get a lot of my win32 info from the Microsoft developer site: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library On this occasion I came across the original EM_SETSEL trick on the following site: http://www.thecodeproject.com This is a C++/C# site but it has a lot of useful ideas if you are willing to decipher the code.

Ahh no, I rarely (if ever) look at the Win32 docs. When I am trying to solve some problem I usually pull up the complete API reference for the control in question to see what messages are available.
