Thank you for your sample .. I have two problems
1) eof can occur with the vertical scroll bar
2) eof can occur with the down arrow key
In your example .. both scenarios create a new row and your logic works .. however, in the repair business there may be 20 or 30 lines of detail on an invoice and the typical technician uses the vertical scroll bar to pan down
thru all the rows ... and when the scroll bar hits EOF .. I was getting the run-away addnewrow.
Your code solves the run-away addnewrow problem.. but when the vertical scrollbar hits EOF .. it creates 1 new empty row .. which is much better than creating 30 new rows ..
What ultimately I wanted to do is be able to trap the down arrow key only at the Eof code-block and ignore any other inputs such as the vertical scroll bar. Inspired by your code I made two changes .. one to xBrowse.prg and the other to your code ..
Please consider this change to xBrowse METHOD KeyDown to allow the key value to be returned. This change allows me to test for bKeyDown and the down arrow key. I do know know if making this small code change would have any un-intended consequences ..
Please review my solution .. if there is another way to prevent the verticle scroll bar from tripping the eof code block, I am open to any ideas.
Thanks

- Code: Select all Expand view RUN
// xbrowse.prg
METHOD KeyDown
...
...
...
case nKey == VK_DOWN .and. !GetKeyState( VK_CONTROL )
if ::KeyNo == ::nLen .and. Empty( ::bPastEof ) .and. ::lRelyOnKeyNo
return 0
endif
::Select( 0 )
::GoDown()
::Select( 1 )
return ::Super:KeyDown( nKey, nFlags ) // proposed change rlipkin 02/09/2018
With the above changes I have modified your code as follows:
- Code: Select all Expand view RUN

//----------------------------------------------------------------------------//

if oCn == nil
? "Connect Fail"
return nil
endif
if .not. FW_AdoTableExists( cTable, oCn )
CreateTestTable()
endif
EditTable()
oCn:Close()
return nil
//----------------------------------------------------------------------------//

local aCols := { { "ITEM", "C", 10, 0 }, { "AMOUNT", "N", 12, 2 } }

local oRs

FWAdoCreateTable( cTable, aCols, oCn )
// Add sample record
oRs := FW_OpenRecordSet( oCn, cTable )
AEval( aData, { |a| oRs:AddNew( { "item", "amount" }, a ) } )
