TakeFieldEvent, VIRTUAL, PROC

The TakeFieldEvent method is a virtual placeholder to process all field-specific/control-specific events for the window. It returns a value indicating whether window process is complete and should stop. TakeFieldEvent returns Level:Benign to indicate processing of this event should continue normally; it returns Level:Notify to indicate processing is completed for this event and the ACCEPT loop should CYCLE; it returns Level:Fatal to indicate the event could not be processed and the ACCEPT loop should BREAK.

Implementation:

The TakeEvent method calls the TakeFieldEvent method. The TakeFieldEvent method processes EVENT:NewSelection events for the preview window SPIN controls.

Return Data Type:     BYTE

MyWindowManager.TakeEvent PROCEDURE

RVal BYTE(Level:Benign)
