How do I set a Tedit so that when ENTER is pressed something is done..

----------------------------------------------------------------------

On the OnKeyPress event of the TEdit:

Code: [Select]if Key = #13 then Do;

Even easier:

Code: [Select]Edit1.Default := True;

Same here...
I also have another question...
I have a TMemo box and a TEdit in my Form..
How can I make so that when the form loads the cursor automatically
loads into the TEdit and not the TMemo

Code: [Select]Form.ActiveControl := Edit;

Or set it on the Object Inspector.

Ok, damn. "Default" property belongs to TButton, not TEdit. Sorry.
Must have been a short-circuit in my head. Not the first time.
For TEdit you must use OnKeyPress indeed.

"Default" property works well for TButton though. You hit Enter and
the button's action is fired.

You can also do in that way:
Code: [Select]edit1.setfocus;
You can replace 'edit1' with combobox, labelededit and so on...
