**TakeFieldEvent, DERIVED, PROC**

{{blk2blue.jpg|blk2blue.jpg}}

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:**

Return values are declared in ABERROR.INC. The TakeEvent method calls the TakeFieldEvent method.

**Return Data Type:**     BYTE

**MyWindowManager.TakeEvent PROCEDURE**

**RVal BYTE(Level:Benign)**
