The **EnterAction **property indicates the action to take when the end user presses the ENTER key during an edit-in-place process.There are two types of actions that EnterAction controls:

what to do with any changes (default, save, abandon, or prompt),

what mode to use next (continue editing or revert to non-edit mode).

The specified actions are implemented by the Ask method. Set the actions by assigning, adding, or subtracting the following EQUATEd values to ArrowAction. The following EQUATEs are in ABBROWSE.INC:

**      ITEMIZE,PRE(EIPAction)**

**Default   EQUATE(0)       !save according to the Ask method**

**Always    EQUATE(1)       !always save the changes**

**Never     EQUATE(2)       !never save the changes**

**Prompted  EQUATE(4)       !ask whether to save the changes**

**Remain    EQUATE(8)       !continue editing**

**      END**

**Example:**

**BRW1.EnterAction = EIPAction:Prompted                  !ask to save changes**

**BRW1.EnterAction = EIPAction:Prompted+EIPAction:Remain !ask to save, keep editing**
