InfoPath Dev

 Hi folks,

 I have some data that is entered via a barcode reader in an infopath repeating table.

The data contains a standard carriage return + linefeed (CR+LF, 0x0D0A) at the end.

 I would like to skip to the next field after the CR+LF, but could not figure out how.

 I noticed that neither the "changing" nor the "changed" events are thrown

after the CR+LF, so where should I put the code I wrote to skip to the appropriate

field? This is a situation in which we would like the operators to scan, say, 10

or so barcodes and I don't want them to have to hit tab or the mouse after

every scan. I know you can limit the size of a text field and skip after that limit,

but what my data can have different lengths - but always have CR+LF at end.

Thanks,

Paolo

 Well maybe this is not possible? Or was the original question not clear?

If not possible, I would definitely have it as a feature request for future versions...

Ciao,

Well, I finally found a solution - though it's not an infopath solution.

It turns out it is possible to reprogram the barcode scanners to deliver

a tab key instead of carriage return+line feed after scanning the barcode.

This way, infopath get a tab character and springs to next field.

Ciao,

Paolo
