**TakeEvent( **//event//** ), PROC**

{{blk2blue.jpg|blk2blue.jpg}}

| **TakeEvent** | Processes an ACCEPT loop event. |
| //event// | An integer constant, variable, EQUATE or expresssion containing the event number. |

The **TakeEvent **method processes an ACCEPT loop event on behalf of the ASCIIViewerClass object and returns a value indicating whether a CYCLE to the top of the ACCEPT loop is required to properly refresh the display.

**Implementation:**

The TakeEvent method handles resizing, RIGHT-CLICKS, LEFT-CLICKS, and scrolling events.

A return value of zero (0) indicates no CYCLE is needed; any other return value requires a CYCLE.

**Return Data Type:     **BYTE

**Example:**

**  ACCEPT**

**    CASE FIELD()**

**    OF ?AsciiBox**

**      IF ViewerActive**

**        IF Viewer.TakeEvent(EVENT()) **

**     CYCLE**

**    END**

**      END**

**  END**

** END**
