Can I subclass a form field control?
Hi Mr. XML,
This is not exactly what you're referring to but you can call the same code from the onexit macro in each formfield and determine the name of the active formfield in a functio with code.
This way you won't have to write different procudures for different formfields but can write some general code that uses the name of the current formfield.
See:
"How to find the name of the current formfield"

Hope this helps,
regards,
Astrid
